  3. COnly a & b
  4. Da, b, & c

Correct answer

D. a, b, & c

Step-by-step solution

Given data: - Work function of Caesium (( )=2 eV = ) (2 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ ~J =3.2 10⁻¹⁹ ~J ) - Frequency of radiation ((f)=6 10¹⁴ ) Hz - Area of the plate = (6.6, ~cm ^2=6.6 10⁻⁴, ~m ^2 ) - Intensity of radiation = (60, ~kW / m ^2=60 10^3, ~W / m ^2 ) Energy of incident photons The energy of each photon is given by: (E=h f ) (E=6.626 10⁻³⁴ 6 10¹⁴=3.97 € ) Maximum kinetic energy of ejected electrons The maximum kinetic energy of the ejected electrons is given by the photoelectric equation: (K_ =E_ photon - ) (K_ = 3.9756 10
