In the photoelectric emission process from a metal of work function1.8 eV, the kinetic energy of most energetic electrons is0.5 eV. The corresponding stopping potential is

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

The stopping potential Vsis related to the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electron Kmaxthrough the relation
Kmax = eVs

0.5 eV = eVsorVs = 0.5 V
