If the work function of a target is 1.25 eV and the wavelength of incident radiation is 2460 \( \text{\AA} \), the stopping potential required to stop the emitted electrons is :
Given : \( h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \text{ Js} \)

  1. A 1.75 V
  2. B 2.75 V
  3. C 3.75 V
  4. D 5.75 V
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 3.75 V

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\) \(E = \frac{(6.6 \times 10^{-34} \text{ Js})(3 \times 10^8 \text{ m/s})}{2460 \times 10^{-10} \text{ m}} = 8.04878 \times 10^{-19} \text{ J}\)…
