    The work function of caesium metal is 2.14 eV. When the light
    of frequency 6×1014Hz is incident on the metal surface, photoemission of electrons
    occurs. Calculate:

    (a) the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons,


    (b) stopping potential,
    (c) the maximum speed of the emitted photoelectrons?

    Solution
    Verified by Toppr

    (a). Work function, ϕo=2.14eV


    Frequency of light, ν=6×1014Hz

    Maximum K.E. is given by the photoelectric effect.


    K=hν−ϕo

    K=(1.6×10−196.626×10−34×6×1014)−2.14=0.345eV

    (b). For stopping potential, Vo, we can write the equation for kinetic energy as,

    K=eVo⇒Vo=eK

    =1.6×10−190.345×1.6×10−19=0.345V

    (c). The maximum speed of the emitted photoelectrons is v.


    Hence, the relation for kinetic energy can be written as,
    K=21mv2
    m=9.1×10−31kg is the mass of electron.

    ⇒v2=2K/m

    Question 2

    The work function of caesium metal is


    2.14 eV. When light of frequency 6
    ×1014 Hz is incident on the metal
    surface, photoemission of electrons
    occurs. What is the
    (a) maximum kinetic energy of the
    emitted electrons,
    (b) Stopping potential, and
    (c) maximum speed of the emitted
    photoelectrons?
    Answer

    Work function of caesium metal, ø0 = 2.14 eV

    Frequency of light, v = 6.0 x 1014 Hz

    (a) The maximum kinetic energy is given by the photoelectric effect as: K = hv


    - ø0

    Where,

    h = Planck’s constant = 6.626 × 10−34 Js

    ∴ K = 6.626 x 1034 x 6 x 1014 / 1.6 x 10-19 - 2.14 = 2.485 - 2.14 = 0.345 eV


    Hence, the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons is 0.345 eV.

    ( b ) For stopping potential , V0 we can write the equation for kinetic energy as:
    K = eV0

    ∴ V0 = K/e = 0.345 x 1.6 x 10-19 / 1.6 x 10-19 = 0.345 V

    Hence, the stopping potential of the material is 0.345 V.

    (c) Maximum speed of the emitted photoelectrons = v

    Hence, the relation for kinetic energy can be written as:  K = 1/2 mv2

    Where,

    m = Mass of an electron = 9.1 × 10−31 kg

    v2 = 2K/m = 2 x 0.345 x 1.6 x 10-19 / 9.1 x 10-31 = 0.1104 x 1012

    ∴ v = 3.323 x 105 m/s = 332.3 km/s

    Hence, the maximum speed of the emitted photoelectrons is 332.3 km/s.

    An operator   is Hermitian if

    For all functions   and  , where   is a Dirac bracket.


    Since a Dirac bracket is linear for operators, you obtain

     
    The fact that both  ,   are Hermitian operators implies that

    Electron is accelerated to a potential of 400V.


    Thus its kinetic energy      K=400eV
    de-Broglie wavelength    λ=2mKh
    ∴   λ=2(9.1×10−31)×400×1.6×10−196.6×10−34
    Or   λ=1.08×10−236.6×10−34=6.1×10−11  m
