The de Broglie wavelength (λ) associated with a photoelectron...
The de Broglie wavelength associated with a photoelectron varies with the frequency of the incident radiation as,\left[v_{0}\right. is threshold frequency]:
Options
- A\lambda \propto \frac{1}{\left(v-v_{0}\right)}
- B\lambda \propto \frac{1}{\left(v-v_{0}\right)^{\frac{1}{4}}}
- C\lambda \propto \frac{1}{\left(v-v_{0}\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}}
- D\lambda \propto \frac{1}{\left(v-v_{0}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}
Correct answer
D. \lambda \propto \frac{1}{\left(v-v_{0}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}
Step-by-step solution
According to de-Broglie wavelength equation,
According to photoelectric effect,
\begin{array}{l}
\mathrm{hv}-\mathrm{hv}_{0}=\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{mv}^{2} ; \mathrm{v}-\mathrm{v}_{0}=\frac{1}{2}=\frac{\mathrm{mv}^{2}}{\mathrm{~h}} \\
\mathrm{v}-\mathrm{v}_{0} \propto \mathrm{v}^{2} \\
\mathrm{v} \propto\left(\mathrm{v}-\mathrm{v}_{0}\right)^{1 / 2} \\
\therefore \quad \lambda \propto \frac{1}{\left(\mathrm{v}-\mathrm{v}_{0}\right)^{1 / 2}}
\end{array}
