NEET · Physics · STD 12 - 11. Dual nature of radiation and matter

When the light of frequency \(2v_0\) (where \(v_0\) is threshold frequency), is incident on a metal plate , the maximum velocity of electrons emitted is \(v_1\). When the frequency of the incident radiation is increased to \(5v_0,\) the maximum velocity of electrons emitted from the same plate is \(v_2\). The ratio of \(v_1\) to \(v_2\) is

  1. A \(1:2\)
  2. B \(1:4\)
  3. C \(2:1\)
  4. D \(4:1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(1:2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to the Einstein's photoelectric equation, \(E=W_{0}+\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}\) When frequency of incident light is \(2 v_{0}\)
