Radiation of two photons having energies twice and five times the work function of a metal are incident successively on the metal surface.Find out the ratio of maximum velocity of photo electrons emitted in the two cases.
- \(\frac{v_1}{v_2}=\frac{1}{3}\)
- \(\frac{v_1}{v_2} = \frac{1}{4}\)
- \(\frac{v_1}{v_2} = 1
- \(\frac{v_1}{v_2} = \frac{1}{2}\)
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Top Questions on Photoelectric Effect
- A light source of wavelength \( \lambda \) illuminates a metal surface, and electrons are ejected with a maximum kinetic energy of 2 eV. If the same surface is illuminated by a light source of wavelength \( \frac{\lambda}{2} \), then the maximum kinetic energy of ejected electrons will be (The work function of the metal is 1 eV).

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other one is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A): Emission of electrons in the photoelectric effect can be suppressed by applying a sufficiently negative electron potential to the photoemissive substance.
Reason (R): A negative electric potential, which stops the emission of electrons from the surface of a photoemissive substance, varies linearly with the frequency of incident radiation.
