Consider the figure for photoemission. How would you reconcile this with the law of conservation of momentum? Note that light (photons) has momentum in a different direction than the emitted electrons.

The rest mass energy of an electron is $0.54 \, MeV$. If the velocity of the electron is $0.8 \, c$,then the kinetic energy $(K.E.)$ of the electron is .......... $MeV$.
