JEE PHYSICS MCQ: DUAL NATURE OF RADIATION AND MATTER

1 Medium
1 of 1
Application +4 | -1
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.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
4.14 eV;0.54 eV4.14 \mathrm{~eV}; 0.54 \mathrm{~eV}
Option A (4.14 eV;0.54 eV4.14 \mathrm{~eV}; 0.54 \mathrm{~eV}) is correct because it correctly calculates the energy of the incident photons and the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons.
