Threshold wavelength for sodium is 5 × 10−7 m. Photoelectric emission occurs for light of : (a) any wavelength (b) wavelength above 6 × 10−7 m (c) wavelength below 5 × 10−7 m (d) all frequency below 5 × 1014 Hz

Answer»

Correct option (c) wavelength below 5 × 10−7 m

Explanation:

For photoelectric emission, it is necessary that the wavelength of the incident light is less than threshold value. 

i.e., λ < λ0 

Hence, the photo emission occurs for light of wavelength below 5 × 10−7 m.
