    The maximum wavelength for photoelectric emission in tungsten is 230 nm. The wavelength of light, which must be used in order that maximum KE of ejected photoelectrons is 1.5 eV, is

    A)  280 cm                      

    B)  210 cm

    C)  175 cm                      

    D)  180 cm

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[{{\lambda }_{o}}=230\,nm\][Thre shold wavelength is given] \[{{K}_{\max }}=\frac{hc}{\lambda }\phi =\frac{hc}{\lambda }-\frac{hc}{{{\lambda }_{o}}}\] \[1.5\,eV=\frac{1242\,eV-nm}{\lambda }-\frac{1242eV-nm}{2.30\,nm}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[\frac{1242}{\lambda }=1.5+5.4=6.9\,or\,\lambda =180\,nm.\] Hence, the correction option is [d].
