Radiation from hydrogen discharge tube falls on a cesium plate find the maximum possible kinetic energy of the photeelectron work function of cesium is `1.9ev`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Given `W_(ces) = 1.9 eV`
the radiations coming from the Hydrogen discharges tube consist of photons of energy is equal to `13.6 eV.`
Maximum KE of photoelectrons emitted
`=Energy of Photons -Work function of metal`
`=13.6eV-19ev = 11.7 eV`
