प्रश्न
A beam of monochromatic radiation is incident on a photosensitive surface. Answer the following question giving reason :
Do the emitted photoelectrons have the same kinetic energy?

उत्तर
Yes, all the emitted photoelectrons have the same kinetic energy as the kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons depends upon the frequency of the incident radiation for a given photosensitive surface.

Consider an electron in front of metallic surface at a distance d (treated as an infinite plane surface). Assume the force of attraction by the plate is given as `1/4 q^2/(4πε_0d^2)`. Calculate work in taking the charge to an infinite distance from the plate. Taking d = 0.1 nm, find the work done in electron volts. [Such a force law is not valid for d < 0.1nm].
