View answer and explanation
Correct option: D

For photoelectric emission from a certain metal, cut off frequency is vv. If radiation of frequency 2v2 v impinges on the metal plate, the maximum possible velocity of the emitted electron will be ( mm is mass of the electron)
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
2hvm\sqrt{\frac{2 h v}{m}}

Light of wavelength λ\lambda falls on a metal having work function hcλ0.\frac{{hc}}{{{\lambda _0}}}. Photoelectric effect will take place only if
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
λ≤λ0\lambda \le {\lambda _0}
Option C (λ≤λ0\lambda \le {\lambda _0}) is correct because the wavelength of light must be less than or equal to the threshold wavelength for the photoelectric effect to occur.

If de-Broglie wavelength of a moving electron is decreased from 1Ao1 \mathop {\text{A}}\limits^{\text{o}} to 0.5Ao0.5 \mathop {\text{A}}\limits^{\text{o}}, then calculate change in its K.E. in eV.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
450 eV450 \mathrm{~eV}
Option A (450 eV450 \mathrm{~eV}) is correct because the change in kinetic energy is calculated from the change in de Broglie wavelength.

Correct option: A
2.41×10202.41 \times {10^{20}}
Option A (2.41×10202.41 \times {10^{20}}) is correct because it is calculated directly from the energy-frequency relation E=hνE = h\nu.

Understanding +4 | -1
The specific charge for positive rays is much less than that for cathode rays. This is because
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Masses of positive rays are much larger
Option A is correct because specific charge is inversely proportional to mass, and positive rays have much larger masses than cathode rays.

Application +4 | -1
In a photoelectric experiment using a monochromatic source, on two metals having work functions in ratio 1:2, the de Broglie wavelengths of the fastest photoelectrons in each case are in ratio 1:21: 2 if the smaller stopping potential is 0.4 V0.4 \mathrm{~V}, the photon energy in eV\mathrm{eV} is (Nearest integer)
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
3
Option A (3) is correct because the photon energy is calculated to be approximately 2.8 eV, which rounds to the nearest integer 3.

When a point source of light is at a distance of one metre from a photo cell, the cut off voltage is found to be VV. If the same source is placed at 2 m2 {~m} distance from photo cell, the cut off voltage will be
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
V{V}
Option A is correct because the cutoff voltage (stopping potential) depends only on the frequency of light and the work function, not the intensity.

Assertion: A photon and an electrons, both of energy 1MeV1 {MeV} has same wavelength.

Reason: E=2m0c2=106eVE=2 m_0 c^2=10^6 \mathrm{eV}
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Assertion is correct, reason is correct; reason is a correct explanation for assertion.
Option D is correct because the assertion is incorrect; a photon and an electron with the same energy do NOT have the same wavelength. The reason is correct and gives the rest mass energy of electron.

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A: Number of photons increases with increase in frequency of light.
Reason R: Maximum kinetic energy of emitted electrons increases with the frequency of incident radiation.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
A is not correct but R is correct
Option D (A is not correct but R is correct) is correct because the number of photons decreases with increasing frequency at constant intensity, and the kinetic energy of emitted electrons increases with frequency.

Understanding +4 | -1
Due to S.C.R. in vacuum tube
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Ip→{I_p} \to Decrease
Option A (Ip→{I_p} \to Decrease) is correct because the space charge region reduces the flow of electrons to the plate, thus decreasing the plate current.
