In a photoelectric experiment three different lights are incident on a metal of work function \(1.5 \mathrm{eV}\). Light \(A\) is \(200 \mathrm{~nm}\) wavelength with intensity \(1.8 \mathrm{~W} / \mathrm{m}^2\), light \(B\) is \(400 \mathrm{~nm}\) with \(1 \mathrm{~W} / \mathrm{m}^2\) and light \(C\) is \(600 \mathrm{~nm}\) with \(0.5 \mathrm{~W} / \mathrm{m}^2\). The current versus voltage is measured. Which graphs correspond to which light?

  1. A I III II
  2. B I II IV
  3. C I III IV
  4. D III II IV
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) III II IV

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given that, work-function, \(\phi_0=1.5 \mathrm{eV}\) Let \(\lambda_0=\) threshold wavelength. Then, \(\phi_0=\frac{h c}{\lambda_0}\)…
