When UV light of wavelength \(300 \mathrm{~nm}\) is incident on the metal surface having work function \(2.13 \mathrm{eV}\), electron emission takes place. The stopping potential is _______. (Given hc \(=1240 \mathrm{eV} \mathrm{nm}\) )

Pick an option to check your answer.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(2 \mathrm{~V}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda}-\phi=\mathrm{eV}\)

\(\Rightarrow \frac{1240}{300} \mathrm{eV}-2.13 \mathrm{eV}=\mathrm{eVs}\)

\(\Rightarrow 4.13 \mathrm{eV}-2.13 \mathrm{eV}=\mathrm{eVs}\)

\(\Rightarrow \text { So, } \quad \mathrm{V}_5=2 \mathrm{volt}\)
