उत्तर
Given: (W0)P = 2.25 eV = 2.25 x 1.6 x 10-19 J = 3.6 x 10-19 J,
(W0)C = 2.14 eV = 2.14 x 1.6 x 10-19 J = 3.424 x 10-19 J,
λ = 5180 Å = 5.18 x 10-7 m
To find: Will the photoelectric effect occur for either of these elements with λ = 5180 Å
Formula: W0 = hv0
`(W_0)_p=h(v_0)_p`
`(v_0)_p=(W_0)_p/h=(3.6xx10^-19)/(6.63xx10^-34)`
`(v_0)_p=5.430xx10^14 Hz`
Similarly
`(v_0)_c=(W_0)_c/h=(3.424xx10^-19)/(6.63xx10^-34)`
`(v_0)_c=5.164 xx10^14Hz`
The corresponding frequency is given by,
`v_2=c/lambda=(3xx10^8)/(5.18xx10^-7)=3/5.18xx10^15`
`v_2=5.792xx10^14Hz`
for potassium
`5.792xx10^14Hz>5.430xx10^14Hz`
`i.e, v_2>(v_o)_p`
Photoelectric emission will take place when light of wavelength λ is incident on it. For caesium,
`5.792xx10^14Hz>5.16xx10^14Hz`
`i.e, v_2>(v_o)_c`
Photoelectric emission will take place when light of wavelength λ is incident on it. For λ= 5180Å wavelength, both potassium and caesium will exhibit photoelectric emission.
