  1. A 4.12
  2. B 2.14
  3. C 1.12
  4. D 1.14
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 2.14

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(B) 2.14
work function,
\(\phi_{0}=h v_{0}\)
\(\phi_{0}=\frac{6.625 \times 10^{-34} \times 5.16 \times 10^{14}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}\)
\(\phi_{0}=2.136 \mathrm{eV}\)
\(\phi_{0} \approx 2.14 \mathrm{eV}\)
