When a metallic surface is illuminated with monochromatic light of wavelengthλ, stopping potential for photoelectric current is3V0. When the same metallic surface is illuminated with a light of wavelength2λ, the stopping potential isV0. The threshold wavelength for the surface is

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

3V0=hceλ-hceλ0.....(1)

V0=hc2eλ-hceλ0......(2)

eqn1eqn2 ⇒ 3V0V0=hceλ-hceλ0hc2eλ-hceλ0

32hceλ-3hceλ0=hceλ-hceλ0

2λ0=12λ

λ0=4λ
