प्रश्न

Draw a plot showing the variation of photoelectric current with collector plate potential for two different frequencies, v1 > v2, of incident radiation having the same intensity. In which case will the stopping potential be higher? Justify your answer.

उत्तर

Effect of frequency of the incident radiation:

Taking radiations of different frequencies but of same intensity, the variation between photoelectric current and potential of plate is obtained and shown in graph given below:

From the graph, we note:

(i) The value of stopping potential is different for radiation of different frequency.

(ii) The value of stopping potential is more negative for radiation of higher incident frequency.

(iii) The value of saturation current depends on the intensity of incident radiation, but is independent of the frequency of the incident radiation.

Consider an electron in front of metallic surface at a distance d (treated as an infinite plane surface). Assume the force of attraction by the plate is given as `1/4 q^2/(4πε_0d^2)`. Calculate work in taking the charge to an infinite distance from the plate. Taking d = 0.1 nm, find the work done in electron volts. [Such a force law is not valid for d < 0.1nm].
