The maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is formed to be `6.63 xx 10^(-19) J`, when the metal is irradiated with a radiation of requency `2 xx 10^(15) Hz`. The threshold frequency, of the metal is about?

A

`1xx10^(15)s^(-1)`

B

`2xx10^(15)s^(-1)`

C

`3xx10^(15)s^(-1)`

D

`1.5 xx 10^(15)s^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`KE=h(v-v_(0))`
`v_(0)=v-(KE)/(h)=2xx10^(15) -(6.63xx10^(-19))/(6.63xx10^(-34))=1xx10^(15)s^(-1)`
