QJEEM22Phf943: JEE Main 2022 Physics - Class 12 JEEM22Phf943 Solution: Let K 1 and K 2 be the maximum kinetic energies of…

Let K1 and K2 be the maximum kinetic energies of photo-electrons emitted when two monochromatic beams of wavelength λ1 and λ2, respectively are incident on a metallic surface. If λ1 = 3λ2 then :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A K1>K23
  • B K1
  • C K1=K23
  • D K2=K13

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

K1=hcλ1−ϕ=hc3λ2−ϕ ..... (i)

and K2=hcλ2−ϕ ..... (ii)

from (i) and (ii) we can say

3K1=K2−2ϕ

K1<K23
