Dual Nature Of Light Question 326

Question: If the work function of a photometal is 6.825 eV. Its threshold wavelength will be $ (c=3\times 10^{8},m/s) $ [Pb. PET 2000; BHU 2004]

Options:

A) 1200 Å

B) 1800 Å

C) 2400 Å

D) 3600 Å

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

$ {\lambda_{0}}=\frac{12375}{6.825}=1813,{\AA}\approx 1800{\AA} $
