The threshold frequency for a certain metal is 3.3xx10^(14) Hz.If light of frequency 8.2xx10^(14)Hz is incident on the metal ,predict the cutoff voltage for the photoelectric emission.

Answer»

Solution :Here `V_(0)=3.3xx10^(14)HZ,h=6.63xx10^(-34)Js`
`V=8.2xx10^(14)Hz`
`V_(0)=?`
`implies` Maximum kinetic energy of photon electron,
`(1)/(2)mv_(MAX)^(2)=hv-phi_(0)`
`therefore eV_(0)=hv-hv_(0)`
`therefore V_(0)=(h)/(e )(v-v_(0))`
`=(6.63xx10^(-34)XX(8.2xx10^(14)-3.3xx10^(14)))/(1.xx10^(-19))`
`=20.30xx10^(-1)`
`therefore V_(0)=2.03 V`
