Q.

The work function of a certain metal is hcλ0. When a monochromatic light of wavelength λ  <  λ0 is  incident such that the plate gains a total power P. If the efficiency of photoelectric emission is η% and all the emitted photoelectrons are captured by a hollow conducting sphere of radius R already charged to potential V, then neglecting any interaction between plate and the sphere, expression of potential of the sphere at time t is

Detailed Solution

Number of photons emitted per second N =η100 X hc

Potential due to the captured electron, V'=Q4πε0R 

where, charge captured in time t is,  Q=eNt

Potential of the sphere after time t is V'  = V - Net 4πε0R = V -ηPλet  400πε0Rhc
