A student performs an experiment on photoelectric effect using two materials `A` and `B`. A plot of stopping potential `(V_(0))` vs frequency `(nu)` is as shown in the figure.

The value of Planck's constant obtained from the experiment for both `A` and `B` respectively is
(Given electric charge of an electron `=1.6xx10^(-19)C)`

A

`3.2xx10^(-34)Js,4xx10^(-34)Js`

B

`6.4xx10^(-34)Js,8xx10^(-34)Js`

C

`1.2xx10^(-34)Js,3.2xx10^(-34)Js`

D

`4.2xx10^(-34)Js,5xx10^(-34)Js`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

(b) :
For metal A, Slope `=(h)/(e)=(2-0)/((10-5)xx10^(14))`
`or h=(2xxe)/(5xx10^(14))=(2xx1.6xx10^(-19))/(5xx10^(14))=6.4xx10^(-34)J` s
For metal B, Slope `=(h)/(e)=(2.5-0)/((15-10)xx10^(14))`
` h=(2.5xxe)/(5xx10^(14))=(2.5xx1.6xx10^(-19))/(5xx10^(14))=8xx10^(-34)J` s
