According to Einstein's photoelectric equation , the graph between the kinetic energy of photoelectrons ejected and the frequency of incident radiation is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

(d) : The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectron ejected is given by
`K.E.=hu-phi_(0)=hu-hu_(0)`
where work function depends on the type of material.
If the frequency of incident radiation is greater than `v_(0)` only then the ejection of photoelectrons start. After that as frequency increases kinetic energy also increases.

The graph between the energy of photoelectrons E and the wavelength of incident light (lamda ) is

According to Einstein's photoelectric equation, the plot of the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons from a metal versus frequency of the incident radiation gives a straight line whose slope

depends on the nature of metal used

depends on the intensity or radiation

depends on both intensity of radiation and the nature of metal used

is the same for all metals and independent of the instensity or radiation

According to Einstein's photoelectric equation (symbols have their usual meaning)

`hv - phi = (KE)_max`

`hvgt(KE)_max`

`phi = hv+ (KE)_max/2`

`phi = (KE)_max- (hv)/2`
