The photoelectric threshold frequency of a metal is v. When light of frequency 4v is incident on the metal. The maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

From Einstein's photoelectric equation the maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from metal surface is given by

                                       Ek=hv1-W

Where W is work function of metal.

Given,   W=hvandv1=4v

∴                Ek=4hv-hv=3hv
