The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from a surface when photons of energy 6 eV fall on it is 4 eV. The stopping potential in volts is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Stopping potential is the negative potential applied
to stop the electorns having maximum kinetic
energy. Therefore, stopping potential will be 4v.\
