When a certain photosensitive surface is illuminated with monochromatic light of frequency \(v\) , the stopping potential for the photo current is \(-V_0/2.\) When the surface is illuminated by monochromatic light of frequency \(v/2,\) the stopping potential is \(-V_0.\) The threshold frequency for photoelectric emission is
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(\frac {3v}{2}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\({\text{e}}{{\text{V}}_{\text{s}}} = {\text{hv}} - \phi \)
\(\left\{ {\frac{{ - e{V_0}}}{2} = hv - \phi } \right\} \times 2\) ..... \((1)\)
\( - e{V_0} = \frac{{hv}}{2} - \phi \) ..... \((2)\)
\(0 = 2hv - 2\phi - \frac{{hv}}{2} + \phi \)
\(\phi = \frac{{3hv}}{2}\) \( \Rightarrow {v_{th}} = \frac{{3v}}{2}\)
