NEET2012PhysicsDual Nature of MatterActual
Monochromatic radiation emitted when electron on hydrogen atom jumps from first excited to the ground state irradiates a photosensitive material. The stopping potential is measured to be 3.57 ~V . The threshold frequency of the material is
Options
- A4 10¹⁵ ~Hz
- B5 10¹⁵ ~Hz
- C1.6 10¹⁵ ~Hz
- D2.5 10¹⁵ ~Hz
Correct answer
C. 1.6 10¹⁵ ~Hz
Step-by-step solution
Energy released from emission of electron aligned E & =(-3.4)-(-13.6) & =10.2 eV aligned From photo electric equation. Work function aligned & =E-e V=h v v & = E-e V h & = (10.2-3.57) e 6.67 10⁻³⁴ v & = 6.63 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 6.67 10⁻³⁴ & =1.6 10¹⁵ ~Hz aligned
