Questions  

Sodium and copper have work functions 2.3ev  and 4.5ev  respectively, then the ratio of the threshold wavelengths is nearest to

a
1:2
b
4:1
c
2:1
d
1:4

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Work function w1=2.3 ev Work function w2=4.5 ev Ratio of threshold wavelengths λ01λ02=? Threshold wavelength λ0=hcw λ1λ2=w2w1 =4.52.3≈2:1
