The difference between threshold wavelengths for two metal surfaces \(A\) and \(B\) having work function \(\phi_A=9\,eV\) and \(\phi_{ B }=4.5\,eV\) in \(nm\) is:(Given, \(hc =1242\,eV\,nm\))

Pick an option to check your answer.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(138\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\lambda_{ A }=\left(\frac{1242}{9}\right)=138\,nm\)

\(\lambda_{ B }=\left(\frac{1242}{4.5}\right)=276\,nm\)

\(\lambda_{ B }-\lambda_{ A }=138\,nm\)
