Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(1\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(KE _{\max }= hv -\phi\)
\(\frac{1}{2} mv ^{2}= h v-\phi\)
\(v =\sqrt{\frac{2( hv -\phi)}{ m }}\)
\(\quad\) Given \(hv _{1}=2 \phi\)
\(hv _{2}=10 \phi\)
\(\therefore \frac{ v _{1}}{ v _{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{ hv _{1}-\phi}{ hv _{2}-\phi}}\)
\(\frac{ v _{1}}{ v _{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{2 \phi-\phi}{10 \phi-\phi}}=\frac{1}{3}\)
