Detailed Solution
The threshold wavelength is 5200A0. For a photoelectric emission to take place the wavelength of incident light must be less than the threshold value. The wavelength of UV rays is 100−4000A0 . so Photoelectrons will be emitted when this material is illuminated with monochromatic radiation from a 50W ultraviolet lamp or 1W ultraviolet lamp.
