AP EAMCET · PHYSICS · Dual Nature of Matter

Two light waves of wavelengths \(600 \mathrm{~nm}\) and \(200 \mathrm{~nm}\) incident on a metal surface. The maximum velocity of photoelectrons produced due to one wavelength is \(\frac{1}{3}\) of the maximum velocity of the photoelectrons produced due to the other wavelength, then the work function of the metal is
