    The work function of a substance is 4.0 eV. The longest wavelength of light that can cause photoelectron emission from this substance is approximately

    A)  540nm         

    B)  400 nm

    C)  310nm           

    D)  220 nm

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     \[W=h{{v}_{0}}=\frac{hc}{{{\lambda }_{0}}}\] Wave function in electron volt\[{{W}_{0}}(eV)\] \[{{W}_{0}}=\frac{12400}{{{\lambda }_{0}}(\overset{o}{\mathop{\text{A}}}\,)}eV\] \[4.0=\frac{12400}{{{\lambda }_{0}}}\] \[{{\lambda }_{0}}=310\,nm\]
