When photon of energy strikes the surface of a metal , the elected photoelectrons have maximum kinetic energy and de-Broglie wavelength . The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectron liberated from another metal by photon of energy is . If the de-Broglie wavelength of these photoelectrons , then choose the correct statement(s).
Options
- AThe work function of is
- BThe work function of is
- C
- DAll of the above
Correct answer
B. The work function of is
Step-by-step solution
From Einstein photoelectric equation,
E = {ϕ}_{0} + {KE}_\max
For metal
For metal
From Eq. (i) and (ii), wo got
Now, according to de-Broglie hypothesis,
Similarly,
∴ \dfrac{\lambdaA}{\lambdaB} = \sqrt{\dfrac{TB}{TA}} = \sqrt{\dfrac{{T}_{A} - 1. 5}{TA}} = \left(1 -\dfrac{1. 5}{TA}\right)1 / 22 = 1 - {T}_{A} = 2. 0eV{ϕ}_{A} = 4 - {T}_{A} = 4 - 2 = 2. 0eV{ϕ}_{B} = 6 - {T}_{A} = 6 - 2 = 4. 0eV
