The electrons are emitted in the photoelectric effect from a metal surface
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Only if the frequency of the incident radiation is above a certain threshold value
Option A is correct because the photoelectric effect occurs only when the incident radiation's frequency exceeds the threshold frequency of the metal.

What is the de Broglie wavelength of a bullet of mass 0.04 kg travelling at the speed of 1 km/s? Photoelectrons are emitted from a metal surface when UV light of wavelength λ=300 nm\lambda=300 \mathrm{~nm} is incident on it. The minimum negative potential required to stop the emission of electrons is 0.54 V0.54 \mathrm{~V}. Calculate:
(i) the energy of the incident photons
(ii) the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted.
An electron is accelerated by a potential difference of V volt to acquire kinetic energy equal to maximum kinetic energy of ejected photoelectron from a metal of work function 3.2 eV, using a light of wavelength 2000 A∘ 2000\,\mathop \mathrm{A}\limits^ \circ \, Value of V is Two monochromatic beams AA and BB of equal intensity II, hit a screen. The number of photons hitting the screen by beam AA is twice that by beam BB. Then, what can inference you about their frequencies? A 5 W source emits monochromatic light of wavelength 5000A∘5000\mathop A\limits^ \circ. When placed 0.5 m away, it liberates photoelectrons from a photosensitive metallic surface. When the source is moved to a distance of 1.0m, the number of photoelectrons liberated will be reduced by a factor of An electron in a hydrogen atom makes a transition from n=n1  to  n=n2n = {n_1}\,\,\mathrm{to}\,\,n = {n_2} state. The time period of the electron in the initial state is eight times that in the final state. The possible values of n1   and   n2{n_1}\,\,\,\mathrm{and}\,\,\,{n_2} are
