Question:

The work function for a certain metal is 4.2 eV. Will this metal give photoelectric emission for incident radiation of wavelength 330 nm?

Answer:

No Work function of the metal, ø0 = 4.2 eV

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

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

Wavelength of the incident radiation, λ = 330 nm = 330 × 10−9 m

Speed of light, c = 3 × 108 m/s

The energy of the incident photon is given as: E = hc/λ

= 6.626 x 10-34 x 3 x 108 / 330 x 10-9 = 6.0 x 10-19 J = 6.0 x 10-19 / 1.6 x 10-19 = 3.76 eV

It can be observed that the energy of the incident radiation is less than the work function of the metal. Hence, no photoelectric emission will take place.
