A silver sphere of radius $1\ cm$ and work function $4.7 \ eV$ is suspended from an insulating thread in free-space. It is under continuous illumination of $200 \ nm$ wavelength light. As photoelectrons are emitted, the sphere gets charged and acquires a potential. The maximum number of photoelectrons emitted from the sphere is $A \times 10^2$ (where $1 < A < 10$ ). The value of $'Z '$ is
$7$
$8$
$9$
$1$
The work function of a photoelectric material is $3.3 eV$. The threshold frequency will be equal to
$(a)$ Estimate the speed with which electrons emitted from a heated emitter of an evacuated tube impinge on the collector maintained at a potential difference of $500\;V$ with respect to the emitter. Ignore the small inttial speeds of the electrons. The specific charge of the electron, $i.e.$, the $e / m$ is glven to be $1.76 \times 10^{11}\; C\; kg ^{-1}$
$(b)$ Use the same formula you employ in $(a)$ to obtain electron speed for an collector potential of $10 \;MV$. Do you see what is wrong? In what way is the formula to be modified?
A point source of light is used in an experiment on photoelectric effect. Which of the following curves best represents the variation of photo current $(i)$ with distance $(d)$ of the source from the emitter
If the two metals $A$ and $B$ are exposed to radiation of wavelength $350\,nm$. The work functions of metals $A$ and $B$ are $4.8\,eV$ and $2.2\,eV$. Then choose the correct option
If the energy of a photon is $10\,eV$, then its momentum is
