Application +4 | -1
Photons of energy 6 eV are incidented on a potassium surface of work function 2.1 eV. What is the stopping potential?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
−3.9  V- 3.9\mathrm{\;V}
Option C ( - 3.9 V) is correct because the stopping potential is equal to the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons divided by the elementary charge, and the maximum kinetic energy is the difference between the photon energy and the work function.
