Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Wave function
`omega = 2.14eV`
(a) Threshold frequency `omega = hnu_(0)`
`nu_(0) = (omega)/(h) = (2.14 xx 1.6 xx 10^(-19))/(6.62 xx 10^(-34))`
`=5.174 xx 10^(14)H_(2)`
(b) `"As "k_(max) = eV_(0)= 0.6eV`
= 2.74eV
Wave length of photon `lambda = (hc)/(E) = (6.62 xx 10^(-34) xx 3 xx 10^(-8))/(2.74 xx 1.5 xx 10^(-19))`
`=4530 Å`
