    1. Light of wavelength 2000 Afalls on a metal surface. If the work function of the metal is 4.2 eV, nd the kinetic energy of the fastest and the slowest emitted photoelectrons. Also nd the slopping potential and cuto wavelength for the metal. Solution : Lets nd the energy of photon E = hc/ E = 12400/2000ev = 6.2ev Now the energy of emmited electrons is ranged from 0 to EM ax . Here EM ax = Ep W So EM ax = 6.2 4.2 = 2ev So stopping potential is V = E/C = 2V For cuto wavelength Ep = W = 4.2ev So = hc/E = 12400/4.2 = 10333 A.
