Beyond which frequency, the ionosphere bends any incident electromagnetic radiation but does not reflect if back towards the earth?

A

50 MHz

B

40 MHz

C

30 MHz

D

20 MHz

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The ionosphere can reflect electromagnetic waves of frequency less than 40 MHz but do not reflect electromagnetic waves of frequency more than 40 MHz.

Beyond which frequency, the ionosphere bends any incidne electrognetic radiation but does not reflect if back towards the aarth?

When a high frequency electromagnetic radiation is incident on a metallic surface, electrons are emitted from the surface. Energy of emitted photoelectrons depends only on the frequency of incident electromagnetic radiation and the number of emitted electrons depends only on the intensity of incident light. Einstein's protoelectron equation [K_(max)=hv-phi} correctly ecplains the PE, where upsilon= frequency of incident light and phi= work function. Q. Light of wavlength 3300 is incident on two metals A and B, whose work function are 4 eV and 2 eV, respectively. Then
