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

The stopping potential for electrons emitted from a photosensitive surface illuminated by light of wavelength \(491\, nm\) is \(0.710\, V\). When the incident wavelength is changed to a new value, the stopping potential is \(1.43\, V\). The new wavelength is ....... \(nm.\)

  1. A \(329\)
  2. B \(309\)
  3. C \(382\)
  4. D \(400\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(382\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{ hc }{\lambda}=\phi+ eV _{ s }\) \(\frac{1240}{491}=\phi+0.71\) \(\frac{1240}{\lambda}=\phi+1.43 \) \(\therefore \lambda=382\, nm\)
