MCQ
A metal surface emits photo electrons, when the incident radiation possesses minimum.....
  • Frequency
  • B
    Intensity
  • C
    Velocity
  • D
    Wave-length

Answer

Correct option: A.
Frequency
a
The minimum frequency required for the emission of electrons is called threshold frequency below which no photoelectron is emitted. This is denoted by $v_0$.

The minimum energy required for the emission of photoelectrons from metal is called work function of that metal $W$.

$W = h v _0$
