11.Dual Nature of Radiation and matter
normal

$10^{-3} \, W$ of $5000\, \mathring A $ light is directed on a photoelectric cell. If the current in the cell is $0.16 \mu A$, the percentage of incident photons which produce photoelectrons, is.......$\%$

A$0.4$
B$.04$
C$20$
D$10$

Solution

$=\frac{\mathrm{n} / \Delta \mathrm{t}}{\mathrm{N} / \Delta \mathrm{t}} \times 100$      $…(1)$
$\because \mathrm{I}=\frac{\mathrm{ne}}{\Delta \mathrm{t}}$
$\frac{\mathrm{n}}{\Delta \mathrm{t}}=\frac{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{e}}=\frac{0.16 \times 10^{-16}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}$
$\therefore \frac{\mathrm{n}}{\Delta \mathrm{t}}=10^{12}$        $…(2)$
and $\quad \mathrm{W}=\frac{\mathrm{N}}{\Delta \mathrm{t}} \frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda}$
$\therefore \frac{\mathrm{N}}{\Delta \mathrm{t}}=\frac{\mathrm{W} \lambda}{\mathrm{hc}}=\frac{10^{16}}{4}$        $…(3)$
Persentage $=\frac{10^{12}}{10^{16}} \times 4 \times 100$
$[\text { from eq. }(1),(2) \text { and }(3)]$
Persentage $=0.04 \%$
