Question
A metal has a threshold frequency of 4.5 × 10¹ⴠHz . What is the maximum kinetic energy of electrons emitted by light of frequency 6.0 × 10¹ⴠHz ? (Take h = 6.63 × 10â»Â³â´ J s )
Explanation
Given:
A metal has a threshold frequency of 4.5 × 10¹ⴠHz . What is the maximum kinetic energy of electrons emitted by light of frequency 6.0 × 10¹ⴠHz ? (Take h = 6.63 × 10â»Â³â´ J s )
These values define the system as per NCERT data.
Formula:
phi_0 = h v_0 = 6.63 × 10â»Â³â´ × 4.5 × 10¹â´= 2.9835 × 10â»Â¹â¹ J.
This is the standard NCERT relation for this phenomenon.
Substitution & Calculation:
E = h v = 6.63 × 10â»Â³â´ × 6.0 × 10¹â´= 3.978 × 10â»Â¹â¹ J . K_{max = E - phi_0 = 3.978 × 10â»Â¹â¹- 2.9835 × 10â»Â¹â¹= 9.945 × 10â»Â²â° J .
Result:
The computed value matches the expected outcome and confirms the correct choice. Units and powers like J kgâ»Â¹ Kâ»Â¹, m/s², 10â»âµ are properly used as per NCERT.
