JEE Main & Advanced Physics Photo Electric Effect, X- Rays & Matter Waves Question Bank Graphical Questions

  • question_answer
    From the figure describing photoelectric effect we may infer correctly that                                          [KCET 2005]

    A)            Na and Al both have the same threshold frequency

    B)            Maximum kinetic energy for both the metals depend linearly on the frequency

    C)            The stopping potentials are different for Na and Al for the same change in frequency

    D)            Al is a better photo sensitive material than Na

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       Stopping potential equals to maximum kinetic energy.                    Since stopping potential is varying linearly with the frequency. Therefore max. KE for both the metals also vary linearly with frequency.
