Light of wavelength 2475 Å is incident on barium . Photo electrons emitted describe a circle of radius 100 cm by a magnetic field of flux density `1/sqrt17xx10^(-5)` tesla. Find the work function of the barium . (Given `e/m=1.7xx10^11`)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

K.E of electron, `K=(e^(2)B^(2)r^(2))/(2m)`
`K=((e)/(m))(eB^(2)r^(2))/(2)=8xx10^(-20)J=0.5eV`
Work funtion `W=E-K_(max)=(12400)/(2480)-0.5eV=4.5eV`
