The work function of a metal is `4.2 eV` If radiation of `2000 Å`fall on the metal then the kinetic energy of the fastest photoelectrn isA. `1.6 xx 10^(-19) J`B. `16 xx 10^(10) J`C. `3.2 xx 10^(-19) J`D. `6.4 xx 10^(-10) J`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
KE = ("Energy of radiation= Work function")
`= (h xx (c )/(lambda) - 4.2)`
`= ((6.6 xx 10^(-34) J s xx 3 xx 10^(8) M)/(2000 xx 10^(-10)m)) - (4.2 xx 1.602 xx 10^(-19) J`
`= (9.9 xx 10^(-19) J) - (6.7 xx 10^(-19)J = 3.2 xx 10^(-19) J`
