Dual Nature of Radiation and Matter

Question:

When a radiation is incident on a metal surface of work function ($\phi_0$), photo electrons are emitted with some maximum kinetic energy ($k$). If the frequency of the incident radiation is doubled, then the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photo electrons will become

Options:

$2 k$

$2k - \phi_0$

$2k + \phi_0$

$k$

Correct Answer:

$2k + \phi_0$

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → $2k + \phi_0$
