Photo Electric Effect
Question

Light of wavelength 2475A0  is incident on Barium. Photoelectrons emitted describe a circle of radius 100 cm by a magnetic field of flux density 117×105Tesla. The workfunction of Barium is (Given em=1.7×1011 C/Kg)

 

Difficult
Solution

Radius of circular path described by the charged particle in the given magnetic field is

r=2mKEqBKE=q2B2r22m=em×eB2r22       =1.7×1011×12×1.6×1019×117×1052×12       =8×1020J       =0.5eV

By using the relation, 

W0=EKEmax=1240024750.5=4.5eV
