If the frequency of light in a photoelectric experiment is doubled the stopping potential will be:

  1. A be doubled
  2. B be halved
  3. C becomes more than the double
  4. D becomes less than the double
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) becomes more than the double

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(eV_s = hf - \phi\) \(V_{s1} = \frac{h}{e}f_1 - \frac{\phi}{e}\) \(V_{s2} = \frac{h}{e}(2f_1) - \frac{\phi}{e}\) \(V_{s2} = 2\left(\frac{h}{e}f_1\right) - \frac{\phi}{e}\) \(V_{s2} = 2\left(V_{s1} + \frac{\phi}{e}\right) - \frac{\phi}{e}\) \(V_{s2} = 2V_{s1} + \frac{\phi}{e}\)…
