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

In a photoelectric experiment, the wavelength of the light incident on a metal is changed from \(300\, nm\) to \(400\, nm\). The decrease in the stopping potential is close to ................ \(V\) \(\left( {\frac {{hc}}{e} = 1240\,nm - V} \right)\)

  1. A \(0.5\)
  2. B \(1.5\)
  3. C \(1\)
  4. D \(2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda_{1}}=\phi+\mathrm{eV}_{1}\) ...... \((i)\) \(\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda_{2}}=\phi+\mathrm{eV}_{2}\) ...... \((ii)\) \((i)\) \(-\) \((ii)\) \(\operatorname{hc}\left(\frac{1}{\lambda_{1}}-\frac{1}{\lambda_{2}}\right)=e\left(V_{1}-V_{2}\right)\)…
