When a surface 1 cm thick is illuminated...

When a surface 1 cm thick is illuminated with light of wavelength `lambda`, the stopping potential is `V_(0)`, but when the same surface is illuminated by light of wavelength `3lambda`, the stopping potential is `(V_(0))/(6)`. Find the threshold wavelength for metallic surface.

A

`4lambda`

B

`5lambda`

C

`3lambda`

D

`2lambda`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2

`eV_(0)=hc((1)/(lambda)-(1)/(lambda_(0)))(eV_(0))/(6)=hc((1)/(3lambda)-(1)/(lambda_(0)))`
