Light of two different frequencies whose photons have energies 1 eV and 2.5 eV respectively, successively illuminate a metallic surface whose work function is 0.5 eV. Ratio of maximum speeds of emitted electrons will be

Answer»

`1: 1`
`1: 2`
`1: 4`
`1: 5`

Solution :`K= H gamma- phi_(0)`
`K_(1)= 1-0.5= 0.5eV`
`K_(2)= 2.5- 0.5 = 2eV`
`((1)/(2) mV_(1)^(2))/((1)/(2) mV_(2)^(2))= (0.5)/(2) RARR (V_(1)^(2))/(V_(2)^(2)) = (1)/(4) rArr (V_(1))/(V_(2))= (1)/(2)`
