Ultraviolet light by wavelength200 nmis incident on the polished surface ofFe(Iron). The work function of the surface is4.71 eV. What will be its stopping potential?
h=6.626×10-34 J s; 1 eV=1.6×10-19 J;  C=3×108 m s-1

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Stopping potential×energy =KEmax

E= ϕ+kEmax

kEmax=E- ϕ

=hC200 nm-4.71 eV

=6.2 eV-4.71 eV

=1.49 eV~ 1.5 eV

Stopping potentialV=1.5 V
