The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons coming out of a metal surface is 10 eV . The minimum voltage required to stop, the emission of electrons from this metal surface is
Options
- A10 V
- B5 V
- C-5 ~V
- D-10 ~V
Correct answer
D. -10 ~V
Step-by-step solution
So, the graph between acceleration and time is a line parallel to time axis as acceleration is constant. Here, K_ =10 eV So, the stopping potential, e V₀=K_ max e V₀=10 eV or V₀=-10 ~V
