AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the wavelength necessary to produce the photoelectric effect in a metal, given that the critical wavelength is 2500 Å and that this new wavelength produces photoelectrons with twice the kinetic energy of those produced at a wavelength of 2000 Å. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Critical Wavelength**: - The critical wavelength (λ₀) is given as 2500 Å. This is the wavelength at which the kinetic energy (KE) of the emitted photoelectrons is zero. - At this wavelength, the energy of the incoming photons is just enough to overcome the work function (Φ) of the metal. ...
