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

  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?
