Write Einstein’s photoelectric equation?

उत्तर

Einstein’s photoelectric effect equation:

(NOTE: Use any one of three given equations)

hv = φ0 + K.E

where, h = Planck's constant, v = frequency of the incomig photons

φ0 = work function of the material and K.E = kinetic energy of the emitted electrons 

or

`hv = phi_0 + 1/2 mv_max^2 `=

where,h = Planck's constant,v = frequency of the incoming photons

φo = work function of the material, 1/2 mv_max^2`kinetic energy of the emitted electrons 

Vmax = maximum velocity of emitted electron

or

`1/2 mv_max^2 = h(v - v_o)`

where h = Planck's constant, v = frequency of the incoming photons 

vo = threshold frequency, `1/2 mv_max^2= ` kinetic energy of the emitted electrons

vmax = maximum velocity of emitted electron

In an accelerator experiment on high-energy collisions of electrons with positrons, a certain event is interpreted as annihilation of an electron-positron pair of total energy 10.2 BeV into two γ-rays of equal energy. What is the wavelength associated with each γ-ray? (1BeV = 109 eV)

Define the terms (i) ‘cut-off voltage’ and (ii) ‘threshold frequency’ in relation to the phenomenon of photoelectric effect.

Using Einstein’s photoelectric equation shows how the cut-off voltage and threshold frequency for a given photosensitive material can be determined with the help of a suitable plot/graph.

How does one explain the emission of electrons from a photosensitive surface with the help of Einstein’s photoelectric equation? 


Each photon has the same speed but different ______.


  1. In the explanation of photo electric effect, we assume one photon of frequency ν collides with an electron and transfers its energy. This leads to the equation for the maximum energy Emax of the emitted electron as Emax = hν – φ where φ0 is the work function of the metal. If an electron absorbs 2 photons (each of frequency ν) what will be the maximum energy for the emitted electron?
  2. Why is this fact (two photon absorption) not taken into consideration in our discussion of the stopping potential?

There are materials which absorb photons of shorter wavelength and emit photons of longer wavelength. Can there be stable substances which absorb photons of larger wavelength and emit light of shorter wavelength.


A photon of wavelength 663 nm is incident on a metal surface. The work function of the metal is 1.50 eV. The maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is ______.
