Photo Electric Effect
Question

A small metal plate (work-function Ws) is kept at a distance d from a singly ionised fixed ion. A monochromatic light beam is incident on the metal plate and photoelectric are emitted. The maximum wavelength of light so that the photo-electrons may
go round the ions along a circle is
 

Difficult
Solution

Here we have 
mv2d=e24πε0d2 or v2=e24πε0md By Einstein's photoelectric equation hv=W0+12mv2=W0+12mv2 or 2hc/λW0m=v2 From eqs. (1) and (2), we have 2hcλW0m=e24πε0md or hcλ=W0+e28πε0d or hcλ=8πε0W0d+e28πε0d or λ=8πε0hcd8πε0W0d+e2
