A parallel beam of monochromatic radiation of cross-section area `A(lt pi a^(2))`, intensity `I` and frequency `v` is incident on a solid conducting sphere of work function`phi_(0)[hv gt phi_(0)]` and radius `'a'`. The sphere is grounded by a conducting wire. Assume that for each incident photon one photoelectron is ejected. Just after this radiation is incident on initially unchanged sphere, the current through the conducting wire is:

A

`(Iae)/(hv)`

B

`(Iae)/(2hv)`

C

`(2Iae)/(hv)`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Number of photons incident on sphere per second=`(IA)(hv)` photo electrons ejected per second =`(IA)(hv)` current through conducting wire =photo current ejected from surface of sphere =`(IAe)(hv)`

A parallel beam of ligth of intensity I and cross section area S is incident on a plate at normal incidence. The photoelectric emission efficiency is 100% , the frequency of beam is v and the work function of the plate is phi(hv gt phi) . Assuming all the electrons are ejected normal to the plane and with same maximum possible speed. The net force exerted on the plate only due to striking of photons and subsequent emission of electrons is

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. For photoelectric effect in a metal, the graph of the stopping potential V_0 (in volt) versus frequency upsilon (in hertz) of the incident radiation is shown in Fig. The work function of the metal (in eV) is.

Now both metal spheres are connected through wire. (radius of spherhes is R ) (a)What will be potential of spheres now ? (b)how many electron will flow through wire ?
