Q.

A beam of electromagnetic radiation of intensity  6.4×105 W/cm2 is comprised of wavelength, λ=310 nm. It falls normally on a metal(work function φ=2eV ) of surface area 1cm2. If one in 103photons ejects an electron, total number of electrons ejected in 1s is 10x (hc = 1240 eVnm, 1eV =  1.6 ×10-19J) , then x is _____

Detailed Solution

Power incident  P=I×A
n = no. of photons incident / second 
   nEph=IA                n=IAEph
 n=IAhcλ=6.4×105×11240310×1.6×1019
n=10+14 photons per second
Since efficiency  =103
No. of electrons emitted =10+11  per second.
x=11 .
