Light of energy 5.0 eV falls on a metal of work function 3.0 eV and electrons are emitted, determine the stopping potential. [electronic charge, e = 1.60 x 10
8ms
-19]
-
A.
1.7V
-
B.
2.0V
-
C.
8.0V
-
D.
15.0V
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation
\(V_8 \frac{hf - w_o}{e} = \frac{5.0 \times 1.60 \times 10^{-19} - 3.0 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}} = 2.0V\)
