UV light of 4.13 eV is incident on a photosensitive metal surface having work function 3.13 eV. The maximum kinetic energy of ejected photoelectrons will be:
- 4.13 eV
- 1 eV
- 7.26 eV
- 3.13 eV
Answer
(2) 1 eV
Solution
Einstein's photoelectric equation: Kmax = h - 0
= 4.13 - 3.13 = 1 eV
Answer: (2)
