The graph and stopping potential of three metals having work function and in an experiment of photoelectric effect is plotted as shown in the figure. Which one of the following statement is/are correct? [Here is the wavelength of the incident ray]
(i) Ratio of work functions
(ii) Ratio of work functions
(iii) , where Planck's constant, speed of light
(iv) The violet colour-light can eject photoelectrons from metals 2 and 3
Options
- A(i), (iii)
- B(i), (iv)
- C(ii), (iii)
- D(i), (ii) and (iv)
Correct answer
A. (i), (iii)
Step-by-step solution
According to Einstein photoelectric equation,
V_S\frac{1}{\lambda}\tan \theta=\frac{h c}{e}\frac{1}{\lambda}V_S1 \quad\lambda \quad \lambda \lambda_\lambda_{\text{violet }}^{\text{violet }}\gt\lambda_{$\text{threshold }} for metal 3
Thus, violet light will eject photoelectron for metal 2 and not metal 3 .
