The kinetic energy of emitted electron is E when the light incident...
The kinetic energy of emitted electron is when the light incident on the metal has wavelength . To double the kinetic energy, the incident light must have wavelength:
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
Using Einstein's photoelectric equation, kinetic energy of an electron is when the incident wavelength is is
When kinetic energy doubles, then,
Subtracting \left(2\right) - \left(1\right)E = hc\left(\dfrac{1}{{\lambda}^{'}} - \dfrac{1}{\lambda}\right)⇒ {\lambda}^{'} = \dfrac{hc\lambda}{E\lambda + hc}
