A photoelectric surface is illuminated successively by monochromatic light of wavelength λ and λ/2. If the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons in the second case is 3 times that in the first case, the work function of the surface of the material is 

(h = planck's constant, c= speed of light)

  • hc/ 2λ

  • hc/λ

  • 2 hc/λ

  • 2 hc/λ


A.

hc/ 2λ

According to Einstein photoelectric equation,

E = Kmax + Φ

Where Kmax is the maximum kinetic energy of emitted electron and Φ is work function of electrons.

Kmax = E - Φ = hv - Φ

Kmaxhc over straight lambda minus ϕ
Similarly, in the second case, maximum kinetic energy of emitted electron is 3 times that in the first case, we get

3Kmax hc over straight lambda minus ϕ 
solving EQs (i) and (ii), we get work function of an emitted electron from a metal surface.

Φ = hc/2λ
