When the wavelength of radiation falling on a metal is changed from , the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons becomes three times larger. The work function of the metal is close to:
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
D.
Step-by-step solution
{KE}_\max = \dfrac{hc}{\lambda} - ϕ = \dfrac{hc}{500} - ϕ .....(i)
Now,
3{KE}_\max = \dfrac{hc}{200} - ϕ
.....(ii)
From equation (i) and (ii)
Put the value of and solving
