The electric field of certain radiation is given by the equationE=200 sin⁡4π×1010t+sin⁡4π×1015tfalls in a metal surface having work function2.0 eV.The maximum kinetic energyin eVof the photoelectrons is [Planck's constanth=6.63×10-34 J sand electron chargee=1.6×10-19 C]

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

∵According to einstein's photoelectric equation,

12mvmax2=hv-w0.....(i)

Here,w0is work function andvis frequency of the photon.

According to question equation, the electric field representing given as

E=200 sin⁡4π×1010t+sin⁡4π×1015t

maximum possible angular frequency,

ω=4π×1015rad

∵ω=2πvor, v=4π×10152π=2×1015 Hz

Put the value ofh, v andW0in Equation (i)

KEmax=6.63×10-34×2×1015-2×1.6×10-19 J

HenceKEmax=6.3 eV
