Photo Electric Effect

Question

 Light of wavelength 5000 A0 falls on a sensitive plate with photo electric work function 1.9 eV. The kinetic energy of the photo electrons emitted will be

 

Moderate
Solution

K{E_{\max }} = E - {W_0} = \frac{{hc}}{\lambda } - {W_o}\

= \frac{{12400eV{\mathop A\limits^0 }}}{{5000{\mathop A\limits^0 }}} - 1.9eV = 0.58eV
