Question
According to Einstein, when a photonoflight offrequencyu or wavelength $\lambda$ is incident on a photosensitive metal surface of work function $\phi_0$, where $\phi_0<\text{h}\upsilon \ ($here $, h$ is Planck's constant$),$ then the emission of photoelectrons takes place. The maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is given by $\text{K}_\text{max}=\text{h}\upsilon-\phi_0$. If the frequency of the incident light is $\upsilon_0$ called thresold frequency, the photoelectrons are emitted from metal without any kinetic energy. So $\text{h}\upsilon_0=\phi_0$.
  1. A metal of work function $3.3eV$ is illuminated by light of wavelength $300\ nm$. The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted is $($taking $h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} Js).$
  1. $0.413eV$
  2. $0.825eV$
  3. $1.65eV$
  4. $1.32eV$
  1. The variation of maximum kinetic energy $(K_{max})$ of the variation of maximum kinetic energy $(\upsilon)$ of the incident radiations can be represented by:
  1. The variation of photoelectric current $(i)$ with the intensity of the incident radiation $(I)$ can be represented by:
  1. The graph between the stopping potential $(V_0)$ and $\Big(\frac{1}{\lambda}\Big)$ is shown in the figure. $\phi_1,\phi_2,\phi_3$ are work function. Which of the following options is correct?
  1. $\phi_1:\phi_2:\phi_3=1:2:3$
  2. $\phi_1:\phi_2:\phi_3=4:2:1$
  3. $\phi_1:\phi_2:\phi_3=1:2:4$
  4. Ultraviolet tight can be used to emit photoelectrons from metal $2$ and metal $3$ only.
  1. Which of the following figures represent the variation of particle momentum and the associated de $-$ Broglie wavelength?

Answer

  1. $(b) 0.825eV$
$\text{K}_\text{max}=\text{h}\upsilon-\phi_0=\frac{\text{hc}}{\lambda}-\phi_0$
$=\frac{(6.6\times10^{-34})\times(3\times10^8)}{(300\times10^{-9})\times(1.6\times10^{-19})}-3.3$
$=4.125\times3.3=0.825\text{eV} $
  1.  

$\text{K}_\text{max}=\text{h}\upsilon-\phi_0$, when $\upsilon=\upsilon_0,\text{K}_\text{max}=0$
$\therefore0=\text{h}\upsilon_0$ or $\phi_0=\text{h}\upsilon_0$
If $\upsilon<\upsilon_0$, then $K_\text{max}$ is negative, i.e., no photoelectric emission takes place.
Thus, graph $(c)$ is possible.​​​​​​​
  1.  

Photoelectric current $(i)$ is proportional to the intensity of the emission light.
Thus, graph $(a)$ is possible.
  1. (c) $\phi_1:\phi_2:\phi_3=1:2:4$
From Einstein's photoelectric equation,
$\text{K}_\text{max}=\text{eV}_0=\frac{\text{hc}}{\lambda}-\phi$
or $\text{V}_0=\frac{\text{hc}}{\text{e}}\cdot\frac{1}{\lambda}-\frac{\phi}{\text{e}}$
Graph of $V_0$ versus $\frac{1}{\lambda} s$ a straight line
Slope of straight line, $\tan\theta=\frac{\text{hc}}{\text{e}}$
At $V_0 = 0,$ we have
$\phi_1:\phi_2:\phi_3=\frac{\text{hc}}{\lambda_{01}}:\frac{\text{hc}}{\lambda_{02}}:\frac{\text{hc}}{\lambda_{03}}$
$0.001\text{hc}:0.002\text{hc}:0.004\text{hc}$
$\therefore1:2:4$

de $-$ Broglie wavelength
$\lambda=\frac{\text{h}}{\text{P}}$ i.e.,$\lambda\propto\frac{1}{\text{P}}$
So the graph between $\lambda$ and $p$ is of the type shown is option $(d)$.

An electromagnetic wave transports linear momentum as it travels through space. If an electromagnetic wave transfers a total energy $U$ to a surface in time $t,$ then total linear momentum delivered to the surface is $\text{p}=\frac{\text{U}}{\text{c}}.$ When an electromagnetic wave falls on a surface, it exerts pressure on the surface. ln $1903,$ the American scientists Nichols and Hull succeeded in measuring radiation pressures of visible light where other had failed, by making a detailed empirical analysis of the ubiquitous gas heating and ballistic effects.

This energy possessed by a system of charges by virtue of their positions. When two like charges lie infinite distance apart, their potential energy is zero because no work has to be done in moving one charge at infinite distance from the other.

It may be positive, negative or zero depending on the signs of $q_1$ and $q_2$.
