Maximum velocity of the photoelectron emitted by a metal is 1.8 10^6 ~m ~s ⁻¹ . Take the value of specific charge of the electron is 1.8 10¹¹ C kg ⁻¹ . Then the stopping potential in volt is
Options
- A1
- B3
- C9
- D6
Correct answer
C. 9
Step-by-step solution
In photoelectic effect stopping potenital is given by V_S= 1 2 m e v_ ^2 Here, aligned & e m =1.8 10¹¹ C kg ⁻¹, v_ =1.8 10^6 ~m ~s ⁻¹ & V_S= 1 2 1 1.8 10¹¹ (1.8 10^6 )^2=9 ~V aligned
