प्रश्न

In an experiment on photoelectric effect, the stopping potential is measured for monochromatic light beams corresponding to different wavelengths. The data collected are as follows:-

Wavelength (nm):         350   400   450   500   550
Stopping potential (V): 1.45  1.00  0.66  0.38  0.16

Plot the stopping potential against inverse of wavelength (1/λ) on a graph paper and find (a) Planck's constant (b) the work function of the emitter and (c) the threshold wavelength.

(Use h = 6.63 × 10-34J-s = 4.14 × 10-15 eV-s, c = 3 × 108 m/s and me = 9.1 × 10-31kg)

उत्तर

(a)

When λ = 350, Vs = 1.45

and when λ = 400 ,  `V_s = 1`

`therefore (hc)/350 = w + 1.45  .......(1)`

and `(hc)/400 = w + 1       .......(2)`

Subtracting (2) from (1) and solving to get the value of h, we get :

`h = 4.2 xx 10^-15  "eV-s"`


(b) Now, work function,

`w = 12240/350 - 1.45 = 2.15  "ev"`


(c) `w = (nc)/λ`

`⇒ λ_"threshold" = (hc)/w`

`⇒ λ_"threshold" = 1240/1.15`

`⇒ λ_"threshold" = 576.8  "nm"`
