The photoelectric threshold frequency of a metal is U . When light of frequency 40 is incident on the metal, The maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectron is :
A
4ho
B
C
5ho
D
25hv
Answer
Explanation
Solution
: the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electron is given by
Kmax=hv−ϕ0=h(4v)−h(v)=3hv
