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

The variation of stopping potential \(\left(V_0\right)\) as a function of the frequency \(\nu \left(\times 10^{14} Hz\right).\) of the incident light for a metal is shown in figure. The work function of the surface is \(...........\,eV\)

  1. A \(18.6\)
  2. B \(2.98\)
  3. C \(2.07\)
  4. D \(1.36\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(2.07\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(eV _0= h v-\phi\) \(0= h v-\phi\) \(\phi= h v\) \(=6.6 \times 10^{-34} \times 5 \times 10^{14}\) \(=33 \times 10^{-20}\,J\) \(\phi=\frac{33 \times 10^{-20}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}=2.07\,eV\)
