Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(0.48\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\omega=6 \times 10^{14} \times 2 \pi\)

\(f=6 \times 10^{14}\)

\(\lambda  = \frac{C}{f} = \frac{{3 \times {{10}^8}}}{{6 \times {{10}^{14}}}} = 5000\,\,\mathop {\text{A}}\limits^o \)

Energy of photon \(\Rightarrow \frac{12375}{5000}=2.475\, \mathrm{eV}\)

From Einstein's equation

\(\mathrm{KE}_{\max }=\mathrm{E}-\phi\)

\(\mathrm{eV}_{\mathrm{s}}=\mathrm{E}-\phi\)

\(\mathrm{eV}_{\mathrm{s}}=2.475-2\)

\(\mathrm{eV}_{\mathrm{o}}=0.475\, \mathrm{eV}\)

\(\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{o}}=0.48\, \mathrm{V}\)
