Question:

All electrons ejected from a surface by incident light of wavelength 200 nm can be stopped before travelling 1 m in the direction of uniform electric field of 4N/C. The work function of the surface is –

Options:

4 eV

6.2 eV

2 eV

2.2 eV

Correct Answer:

2.2 eV

Explanation:

$V_s = E.d$

$V_s = 4Volt$

$eV_s = \frac{12400}{λ}– W$

$4 eV =\frac{12400eV}{2000}– W$

4eV = 6.2eV – W

[W = 2.2 eV]
