Photoelectric emission takes place from a certain metal at threshold frequency \(v\). If the radiation of frequency \(4 v\) is incident on the metal plate, the maximum velocity of the emitted photoelectrons will be ( \(\mathrm{m}=\) mass of photoelectron, \(\mathrm{h}=\) Planck's constant)

  1. A \(\sqrt{\frac{6 \mathrm{~h} v}{\mathrm{~m}}}\)
  2. B \(\sqrt{\frac{3 \mathrm{~h} v}{\mathrm{~m}}}\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{h} v}{\mathrm{~m}}}\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{\frac{5 \mathrm{~h} v}{\mathrm{~m}}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\sqrt{\frac{6 \mathrm{~h} v}{\mathrm{~m}}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{1}{2}m v_{max}^2 = hf - hf_0\) \(\frac{1}{2}m v_{max}^2 = h(4v) - hv\)
