JEE Main & Advanced Physics Photo Electric Effect, X- Rays & Matter Waves Question Bank Photon and Photoelectric Effect

  • question_answer
    Light of frequency \[8\times {{10}^{15}}Hz\] is incident on a substance of photoelectric work function \[6.125\,eV.\] The maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is [AFMC 2001]

    A)            17\[eV\]                                

    B)            22\[eV\]

    C)            27\[eV\]                                

    D)            37\[eV\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

               \[E=h\nu =6.6\times {{10}^{-34}}\times 8\times {{10}^{15}}=5.28\times {{10}^{-18}}J=33eV\] By using \[E={{W}_{0}}+{{K}_{\max }}\Rightarrow {{K}_{\max }}=E-{{W}_{0}}\]    \[=33-6.125=27eV\]
