Practice question
Question
A photon of wavelength 300 nm is incident on a metal. What is its energy in eV? (Take h c = 1240 eV nm )
Explanation
Given:
A photon of wavelength 300 nm is incident on a metal. What is its energy in eV? (Take h c = 1240 eV nm )
These values define the system as per NCERT data.
Formula:
Energy E = h c/lambda.
This is the standard NCERT relation for this phenomenon.
Substitution & Calculation:
E = 1240/300 approx 4.13 eV .
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.
