When photon of energy strikes the surface of a metal , the elected photoelectrons have maximum kinetic energy and de-Broglie wavelength . The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectron liberated from another metal by photon of energy is . If the de-Broglie wavelength of these photoelectrons , then choose the correct statement(s).
- AThe work function of is
- Correct answerBThe work function of is
- C
- DAll of the above
Solution
From Einstein photoelectric equation,
For metal
For metal
From Eq. (i) and (ii), wo got
Now, according to de-Broglie hypothesis,
Similarly,
On solving,
or
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
