The stopping potential for the photoelectrons emitted from a metal surface of work function 1.7 eV is 10.4 V. Find the wavelength of the radiaiton used. Also, identify the energy levels in hydrogen atom, which will emit this wavelength.

Answer» Correct Answer - A::B::C
Stopping potential =10.4 V
`:. K_(max) = 10.4 eV`
`E = W + K_(max) = 1.7+ 10.4 = 12.1 eV`
`lambda = (12375)/(12.1) = 1022 Å.`
12.1 eV is the energy gap between n = 3 and n=1
in hydrogen atom.
