QJEEM23Pha11a: JEE Main 2023 Physics - Class 12 JEEM23Pha11a Solution: If the two metals and are exposed to radiation of wavelength .…

If the two metals A\mathrm{A} and B\mathrm{B} are exposed to radiation of wavelength 350 nm350 \mathrm{~nm} . The work functions of metals A\mathrm{A} and B\mathrm{B} are 4.8eV4.8 \mathrm{eV} and 2.2eV2.2 \mathrm{eV} . Then choose the correct option.

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Metal B will not emit photo-electrons
  • B Both metals A\mathrm{A} and B\mathrm{B} will not emit photo-electrons
  • C Metal A will not emit photo-electrons
  • D Both metals A and B will emit photo-electrons

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

ϕ=hcλ=1240350eV=3.54eV\phi=\frac{h c}{\lambda}=\frac{1240}{350} \mathrm{eV}=3.54 \mathrm{eV}

∴\therefore Only metal B will emit photoelectron.
