- A4.13 eV
- B1 eV
- C7.26 eV
- D3.13 eV
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
-
Use Einstein’s photoelectric equation
The maximum kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons is where:
- = energy of incident photon
- = work function of the metal
-
Substitute the given values
Given:
Therefore,
-
Match with the options
So the correct option is B.
