This was called the 'Ultraviolet Catastrophe',
But light rays have no mass and hence their energy is equivalent to their speed.
The aim of this article is to propose an alternative explanation to this conundrum of the photoelectric effect.
Max Plank quantified the relationship between the frequency of light and its energy, by measuring the energy carried by light waves of different frequencies.
However, if the frequency in Plank's formula that is expressed in cycles per second, is replaced by Einstein's single cycle,
