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

  • question_answer
    For the photoelectric effect, the maximum kinetic energy \[{{E}_{k}}\] of the emitted photoelectrons is plotted against the frequency n of the incident photons as shown in the figure. The slope of the curve gives [CPMT 1987; MP PET 2001; DPMT 2002]

    A)            Charge of the electron    

    B)            Work function of the metal

    C)            Planck's constant               

    D)            Ratio of the Planck?s constant to electronic charge

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                       Comparing Einstein?s equation                    \[{{K}_{\max }}=h\nu -h{{\nu }_{0}}\], with \[y=mx+c,\]we get slope, \[m=h\]
