प्रश्न

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)

उत्तर

Given :-

`E = 100 sin [(3 xx 10^-15 "s"^-1)t] sin [(6 xx 10^-15 "s"^-1)t]`

= `100 xx 1/2 cos [(9 xx 10^15 "s"^-1)t] - cos[(3 xx 10^15 "s"^-1)t]`

The values of angular frequency `ω` are `9 xx 10^15` and `3 xx 10^15`.

Work function of the metal surface, `phi = 2  "eV"`

Maximum frequency,

`v = ω_(max)/(2pi) = (9 xx 10^15)/(2pi) Hz`

From Einstein's photoelectric equation, kinetic energy, 

K = hv - `phi`

`⇒ K = 6.63 xx 10^-34 xx (9 xx 10^15)/(2pi) xx 1/(1.6 xx 10^-19) - 2 "eV"`

⇒ K = 3.938 eV

Choose the correct answer from given options
Photons of frequency v are incident on the surface of two metals A and B of threshold frequency 3/4 v and 2/3 v, respectively. The ratio of maximum kinetic energy of electrons emitted from A to that from B is


  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 – φ0  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?
