Q.

Photoelectric effect experiments are performed using three different metal plates p,q and r having work functions  ϕp=2.0eV,ϕq=2.5eV,ϕr=3.0eV respectively. A light beam containing wavelengths of 550nm, 450 nm and 350 nm with equal intensities illuminates each of the plates. The correct I-V graph for the experiment is[Take hc= 1240eV nm]

Detailed Solution

For 550nmE1=1240550=2.25eV

For 450nmE2=1240450=2.75eV

For 350nmE3=1240350=3.54eV

ϕp<E1,E2,E3 ((all wavelengths can eject photoelectrons from p)

E1<ϕq<E2, E3(only E2,E3can eject photoelectrons from q)

E1,E2<ϕr<E3(only  E3 can eject photoelectrons from r)

All wavelengths have equal intensity (say I)

Now, photocurrent is directly proportional to intensity of incident radiation that can cause ejection of photoelectrons

So, ip:iq:ir=3I:2I:l

For p: 3.54=2+eVpVp=1.54eV
For q: 3.54=2.5+eVqVq=1.04eV

For r: 3.54=3.0+eVrVr=0.54eV
