उत्तर

A photon of wavelength 663 nm is incident on a metal surface. The work function of the metal is 1.50 eV. The maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is 6.0 × 10-20 J.

Explanation:

Given: λ = 663 nm, Φ0 = 1.5 eV

To Find: Max kinetic energy

We know that K.E. = `hf - phi_0`

K.E. = `(hc)/lambda - phi_0`

K.E. = `((6.62 xx 10^-34 xx 3 xx 10^8))/((663 xx 10^-9)) - 1.5 xx 1.6 xx 10^-19`

K.E. = `6 xx 10^-20` J

The frequency and intensity of a light source are doubled. Consider the following statements.

(A) The saturation photocurrent remains almost the same.
(B) The maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is doubled.


The electric field at a point associated with a light wave is `E = (100  "Vm"^-1) sin [(3.0 xx 10^15 "s"^-1)t] sin [(6.0 xx 10^15 "s"^-1)t]`.If this light falls on a metal surface with a work function of 2.0 eV, what will be the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons?

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


Consider the situation of the previous problem. Consider the faster electron emitted parallel to the large metal plate. Find the displacement of this electron parallel to its initial velocity before it strikes the large metal plate.

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


Use Einstein’s photoelectric equation to show how from this graph, 
(i) Threshold frequency, and (ii) Planck’s constant can be determined.


Each photon has the same speed but different ______.


The minimum energy required to remove an electron is called ______.


  1. In the explanation of photo electric effect, we assume one photon of frequency ν collides with an electron and transfers its energy. This leads to the equation for the maximum energy Emax of the emitted electron as Emax = hν – φ where φ0 is the work function of the metal. If an electron absorbs 2 photons (each of frequency ν) what will be the maximum energy for the emitted electron?
  2. Why is this fact (two photon absorption) not taken into consideration in our discussion of the stopping potential?

There are materials which absorb photons of shorter wavelength and emit photons of longer wavelength. Can there be stable substances which absorb photons of larger wavelength and emit light of shorter wavelength.


The photon emitted during the de-excitation from the first excited level to the ground state of a hydrogen atom is used to irradiate a photocathode in which the stopping potential is 5 V. Calculate the work function of the cathode used.
