$A$ cobalt $(Co)$ plate is placed at a distance of $1 \,m$ from a point source of power $1 \,W$. Assume a circular area of the plate of radius $r = 1 \,Å$ is exposed to the radiation and ejects photoelectrons. The light energy is considered to be spread uniformly and the work function of cobalt is $5 \,eV$. The minimum time the target should be exposed to the light source to eject a photoelectron (assuming no reflection losses) is: (in $\,s$)

  • A
    $320$
  • B
    $450$
  • C
    $860$
  • D

Ultraviolet light of wavelength $2271 \,\mathring{A}$ from a $100 \; W$ mercury source irradiates a photo-cell made of molybdenum metal. If the stopping potential is $-1.3 \; V$, estimate the work function of the metal. How would the photo-cell respond to a high-intensity $(10^{5} \; W \; m^{-2})$ red light of wavelength $6328 \,\mathring{A}$ produced by a $He-Ne$ laser?

The threshold wavelength of tungsten is $2300 \, \mathring{A}$. If ultraviolet light of wavelength $1800 \, \mathring{A}$ is incident on it,then the maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons would be about ............ $eV$.

The electric field associated with a monochromatic light wave is given by $E = E_0 \sin \left[ \left( 1.57 \times 10^7 \text{ m}^{-1} \right) (x - ct) \right]$. The stopping potential when this light is used in a photoelectric experiment with a metal having a work function of $1.9 \text{ eV}$ is: (Planck's constant,$h = 6.64 \times 10^{-34} \text{ J-s}$) (in $\text{ V}$)
