JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 11. Dual nature of radiation and matter

A light beam of wavelength \(500\, {nm}\) is incident on a metal having work function of \(1.25\, {eV}\), placed in a magnetic field of intensity \(B\). The electrons emitted perpendicular to the magnetic field \(B\), with maximum kinetic energy are bent into circular arc of radius \(30\, {cm}\). The value of \(B\) is \(....\,\times 10^{-7} \,{T}\). Given \({hc}=20 \times 10^{-26}\, {J}-{m}\), mass of electron \(=9 \times 10^{-31} \,{kg}\)

  1. A \(150\)
  2. B \(125\)
  3. C \(250\)
  4. D \(175\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(125\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{h c}{\lambda}-\phi=k_{\max }\) \(k_{\max }=\frac{1240}{500}-1.25 \approx 1.25\) \(r=\frac{\sqrt{2 m k}}{e B}\) \(B=\frac{\sqrt{2 m k}}{e r}\) \(=125 \times 10^{-7} T\)
