When a light of a given wavelength falls on a metallic surface the stopping potential for photoelectrons is 3.2 V. If a second light having wavelength twice of first light is used, the stopping potential drops to 0.7 V. The wavelength of first light is m. (h = 6.63 10-34 J s, e = 1.6 10-19 C, c = 3 108 m/s)

  1. 2.9 10-8
  2. 2.5 10-7
  3. 3.1 10-7
  4. 2.2 10-8

Answer

(2) 2.5 10-7

Solution

Einstein's equation: eV0 = hc - 0

First light: hc - 0 = 3.2 eV ...(i)

Second light: hc2 - 0 = 0.7 eV ...(ii)

(i) − (ii): hc2 = 2.5 eV hc = 5 eV

= hc5 eV = 6.63 10-34 3 1085 1.6 10-19

= 19.89 10-268 10-19 = 2.49 10-7 m

2.5 10-7 m
