What is the maximum velocity (in m/s) of electrons ejected from a material by 85 nm photons, if they are bound to the material by 4. 66 ev?

Sagot :

The maximum velocity of electrons is  v = 3.20 × 10¹⁵ m/s

The wavelength of photons λ = 85 nm

W = 4.66 ev

What is photoelectric effect and how velocity of photoelectrons is calculated?

     The emission of electrons happened and absorbed through the electromagnetic radiation is said to be photoelectric effect.

Photoelectric cells, photodiodes works on the principle of photoelectric effect.

According to of photoelectric effect,

                          E = hν

        Here,  hc / λ = W + KE max

                    hc / λ =  W + 1/2 mv² max

               

                   v² =  sqrt of (( hc / λ - W) (2/m))

                   I cap denotes λ ,

substituting all the values,

 v = sqrt of ( (6.623 × 10⁻³⁴ Js ) ( 3 × 10⁸ m/s) / (85 nm) - 4.66ev) (2/  9.1× 10⁻³¹

   v = sqrt of ((1.987800 ×  10⁻²⁵ / 85 × 10 ⁹ ) - 4.66 ev ) ( 2.197 × 10³⁰)          

   v = sqrt of ((2.338588 × 10⁻³⁶) - 4.66 ev ) ( 2.197 × 10³⁰)3.2

   v = 3.20 × 10¹⁵ m/s

Thus, the maximum velocity is calculated as  v = 3.20 × 10¹⁵ m/s.
