Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider that in an experiment, a metal surface can emit electrons if illuminated with light of frequency 5 × 10^14 Hz. If the work function for this metal is 2 eV, calculate the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons.

💡 Hint: First calculate the photon energy and then use it in the kinetic energy formula.

Question 2

If a certain metal exhibits photoelectric emission at a threshold frequency of 7.5 × 10^14 Hz, determine whether a light of frequency 6 × 10^14 Hz will result in electron emission.

💡 Hint: Compare the incident light frequency with the threshold frequency.
