The frequency of the incident light falling on a photosensitive metal plate is doubled, the kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectron is

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

LetE1andE2be the KE of photoelectrons for incident light of frequencyvand2vrespectively.

Thenhv=E1+ϕandh2v=E2+ϕ0

So,2E1+ϕ0=E2+ϕ0orE2=2E1+ϕ0

It means the KE of photoelectron becomes more than double
