Question -

The threshold frequency for a certain metalis 3.3 × 1014 Hz. If light of frequency 8.2 × 1014 Hzis incident on the metal, predict the cutoff voltage for the photoelectricemission.



Answer -

Threshold frequency of the metal, 

Frequency of light incident on the metal, 

Charge on an electron, e =1.6 × 10−19 C

Planck’s constant, h =6.626 × 10−34 Js

Cut-offvoltage for the photoelectric emission from the metal = 

The equation for thecut-off energy is given as:

Therefore, the cut-off voltage for thephotoelectric emission is
