Question
A horizontal cesium plate ($\phi$ = l.9 eV) is moved vertically downward at a constant speed u in a room full of radiation of wavelength 250 run and above. What should be the minimum value of u so that the vertically upward component of velocity is nonpositive for each photoelectron?

Answer

Work function $=\phi,$ distance = dThe particle will move in a circle
When the stopping potential is equal to the potential due to the singly charged ion at that point.
$\text{eV}_0=\frac{\text{hc}}{\lambda}-\phi$
$\Rightarrow\text{v}_0=\Big(\frac{\text{hv}}{\lambda}-\phi\Big)\frac{1}{\text{e}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{ke}}{2\text{d}}=\Big(\frac{\text{hc}}{\lambda}-\phi\Big)\frac{1}{\text{e}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{ke}}{\text{2d}}=\frac{\text{hc}}{\lambda}-\phi$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{hc}}{\lambda}=\frac{\text{ke}^2}{2\text{d}}+\phi=\frac{\text{ke}^2+2\text{d}\phi}{2\text{d}}$
$\Rightarrow\lambda=\frac{\text{hc 2d}}{\text{ke}^2+2\text{d}\phi}=\frac{2\text{hcd}}{\frac{1}{4\pi\omega_0\text{e}^2}2\text{d}\phi}=\frac{8\pi\omega_0\text{hcd}}{\text{e}^2+8\pi\omega_0\text{d}\phi}$

In $1959$ Lyttleton and Bondi suggested that the expansion of the Universe could be explained if matter carried a net charge. Suppose that the Universe is made up of hydrogen atoms with a number density $N,$ which is maintained a constant. Let the charge on the proton be: $\ce{e_p = -(1 + y)e}$ where e is the electronic charge.
Find the critical value of $y$ such that expansion may start.

An electron gun with its collector at a potential of $100 V$ fires out electrons in a spherical bulb containing hydrogen gas at low pressure $(\sim 10^{–2} mm$ of $Hg)$. A magnetic field of $2.83 \times 10^{–4} T$ curves the path of the electrons in a circular orbit of radius $12.0 \ cm. \ ($The path can be viewed because the gas ions in the path focus the beam by attracting electrons, and emitting light by electron capture; this method is known as the ‘fine beam tube’ method.$)$ Determine $e/m$ from the data.

Natural water contains a small amount of tritium $\big(\text{ }^3_1\text{H}\big).$ This isotope beta-decays with a half-life of $12.5$ years. A mountaineer while climbing towards a difficult peak finds debris of some earlier unsuccessful attempt. Among other things he finds a sealed bottled of whisky. On returning, he analyses the whisky and finds that it contains only $1.5$ per cent of the $\text{}^3_1\text{H}$ radioactivity as compared to a recently purchased bottle marked $'8$ years old$'.$ Estimate the time of that unsuccessful attempt.
