Application +4 | -1
The threshold frequency for a certain photosensitive metal is υ0{\upsilon _0} When it is illuminated by light of frequency υ=2υ0\upsilon = 2{\upsilon _0},the maximum velocity of photoelectrons is v0{v_0}. What will be the maximum velocity of the photoelectrons when the same metal is illuminated by light of frequency υ=5υ0\upsilon = 5{\upsilon _0} ?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
2v02{v_0}
Option B (2v02{v_0}) is correct because the maximum velocity is proportional to the square root of the frequency difference from the threshold frequency.
