  1. A 200 nm
  2. B 300 nm
  3. C 700 nm
  4. D 400 nm
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 700 nm

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(\phi_0=24 \mathrm{eV}\)
We know that, \(\phi_0=\frac{1240}{\lambda_0(\text { in } \mathrm{nm})}\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad \lambda_0(\) in nm\()=\frac{1240}{\phi_0}=\frac{1240}{24}=516.6 \mathrm{~nm}\)
