For photoelectric emission from certain metals, the cutoff frequency is \(\nu\). If radiation of frequency \(2\nu\) impinges on the metal plate, the maximum possible velocity of the emitted electron will be:
(\(m\) is the electron mass)
1. | \(\sqrt{\dfrac{h\nu}{m}}\) | 2. | \(\sqrt{\dfrac{2h\nu}{m}}\) |
3. | \(2\sqrt{\dfrac{h\nu}{m}}\) | 4. | \(\sqrt{\dfrac{h\nu}{2m}}\) |
A \(5\) W emits monochromatic light of wavelength \(5000~\mathring{A}\). When placed \(0.5\) m away, it liberates photoelectrons from a photosensitive metallic surface.
When the source is moved \(1.0\) m away, the number of photoelectrons liberated is reduced by a factor of?
1. \(4\)
2. \(8\)
3. \(16\)
4. \(2\)
When the light of frequency \(2\nu_0\) (where \(\nu_0\) is threshold frequency), is incident on a metal plate, the maximum velocity of electrons emitted is \(v_1\). When the frequency of the incident radiation is increased to \(5\nu_0,\) the maximum velocity of electrons emitted from the same plate is \(v_2.\) What will be the ratio of \(v_1\) to \(v_2\)?
1. | \(1:2\) | 2. | \(1:4\) |
3. | \(4:1\) | 4. | \(2:1\) |
An electron of mass m with an initial velocity \(\overrightarrow v= v_0\hat i\)\( ( v_o > 0 ) \) enters in an electric field \(\overrightarrow E = -E_0 \hat i\)\((E_0 = \text{constant}>0)\) at \(t=0\). If \(\lambda_0\)
1. \(\frac{\lambda_0}{\left(1+ \frac{eE_0}{mv_0}t\right)}\)
2. \(\lambda_0\left(1+ \frac{eE_0}{mv_0}t\right)\)
3. \(\lambda_0 t\)
4. \(\lambda_0\)
The figure shows different graphs between stopping potential \(V_0\) and frequency (\(\nu\)) for the photosensitive surfaces of cesium, potassium, sodium and lithium. The plots are parallel.
1. | Cesium |
2. | Potassium |
3. | Sodium |
4. | Lithium |
1. | (i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv) | 2. | (i) > (iii) > (ii) > (iv) |
3. | (iv) > (iii) > (ii) > (i) | 4. | (i) = (iii) > (ii) = (iv) |
The value of stopping potential in the following diagram is given by:
1. | \(-4\) V | 2. | \(-3\) V |
3. | \(-2\) V | 4. | \(-1\) V |
1. | The stopping potential will decrease. |
2. | The stopping potential will increase. |
3. | The kinetic energy of emitted electrons will decrease. |
4. | The value of the work function will decrease. |
The stopping potential for photoelectrons:
1. | does not depend on the frequency of the incident light. |
2. | does not depend upon the nature of the cathode material. |
3. | depends on both the frequency of the incident light and the nature of the cathode material. |
4. | depends upon the intensity of the incident light. |
1. | moves with one-fourth of energy as that of the initial energy. |
2. | moves with one-fourth of momentum as that of the initial momentum. |
3. | will be half in number. |
4. | will be one-fourth in number. |
