उत्तर
Photoelectric cut-off voltage, V0 = 1.5 V
The maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is given as:
Ke = eV0
Where,
e = Charge on an electron = 1.6 × 10−19 C
∴ Ke = 1.6 × 10−19 × 1.5
= 2.4 × 10−19 J
Therefore, the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted in the given experiment is 2.4 × 10−19 J.
