JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 11. Dual nature of radiation and matter
A metal exposed to light of wavelength \(800\,nm\) and emits photoelectrons with a certain kinetic energy. The maximum kinetic energy of photo-electron doubles when light of wavelength \(500\, nm\) is used. The work function of the metal is \(...eV\) (Take \(hc =1230 \,eV - nm\) ).
- A \(1.537\)
- B \(2.46\)
- C \(0.615\)
- D \(1.23\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(0.615\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(k _{1}=\frac{1230}{800}-\phi\) \(k _{2}=2 k _{1}=\frac{1230}{500}-\phi\) Eliminating \(k_{1}\) from \((1)\) and \((2)\) we get \(0=\frac{1230}{500}-\frac{1230}{400}+\phi\) \(\phi=0.615\,eV\)
