K max ( in eV )=3, and frequency of light(in Hz )=1× 10 15 for a metal used as a cathode in a photoelectric experiment. The threshold frequency of light for the photoelectric emission from the metal is -

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Given, K max =3  eV

h=4.125× 10 −15  eV  Hz -1

hν= K max +W

4.125×10-15×1015=3+W

or4.125= 3 +W

orW=1.125

The threshold frequency

ν 0 = W h

ν 0 = 1.125 4.125× 10 −15

ν 0 = 1.125× 10 −15 4.125

ν 0 =2.72× 10 14
