If the work functions of three photosensitive materials are 1 eV , 2 eV and 3 eV respectively, then the ratio of the respective frequencies of light that produce photoelectrons of the maximum kinetic energy of 1 eV from each of them is
Options
- A1 : 2 : 3
- B2 : 3 : 4
- C1 : 1 : 1
- D3 : 2 : 1
Correct answer
B. 2 : 3 : 4
Step-by-step solution
From Einstein photo electric equation h v = K E + ϕ Where, ϕ = work function = h v 0 K E = 1 eV h v 1 = 1 + 1 = 2 eV h v 2 = 1 + 2 = 3 eV h v 3 = 1 + 3 = 4 eV ⇒ v 1 : v 2 : v 3 = 2 : 3 : 4
