The maximum velocity of the photoelectron emitted by the metal surface is v , charge and mass of the photoelectron are denoted by e and m respectively. The stopping potential in volt is
Options
- Av^2 e m
- Bv^2 m 2 e
- Cv^2 m e
- Dv^2 e 2 m
Correct answer
B. v^2 m 2 e
Step-by-step solution
We have, potential energy to stop the fastest moving electrons is equal to the kinetic energy: 1 2 m v^2=e VV is the stopping potential V= v^2 m 2 e
