When a photosensitive surface is irradiated by light of wavelength ' ₁ ' and ' ₂ ', maximum kinetic energies of emitted photoelectrons are ' E₁ ' and ' E₂ ' respectively. The work function of photosensitive surface is
Options
- A( ₁ E₁- ₂ E₂ ) ( ₂- ₁ )
- B( ₁ E₁+ ₂ E₂ ) ( ₂- ₁ )
- C( ₁ E₂- ₂ E₁ ) ( ₂- ₁ )
- D( ₁ E₂+ ₂ E₁ ) ( ₂- ₁ )
Correct answer
A. ( ₁ E₁- ₂ E₂ ) ( ₂- ₁ )
Step-by-step solution
aligned & E ₁= hc ₁ - W & E ₂= hc ₂ - W & E ₁ ₁+ W ₁= E ₂ ₂+ W ₂ & ~W = E ₁ ₁- E ₂ ₂ ₂- ₁ aligned
