The minimum frequency for the photoelectric effect of a zinc plate is 9.7 × 10^14 Hz. If a green photon with a wavelength of 532nm strikes the plate, will electrons be emitted? Show your work to support your answer.


Sagot :

yes electrons will be emitted with the kinetic energy of

[tex]30.87 \times 10 { }^{ - 19} j[/tex]

what is photoelectric effect?

In photoelectric effect, the electrically charged particles are released from or within a material when it absorbs electromagnetic radiation.

what is kinetic energy?

It is a form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason of its motion. If work, which transfers energy, is done on an object by applying a net force, the object speeds up and thereby gains kinetic energy.

Given:

wavelength,λ

[tex] = 5.32 \times 10 {}^{ - 8} m[/tex]

Frequency

[tex] = 9.7 \times {10}^{14} [/tex]

Einstein's photoelectric equation

€= w + KE

€ = hc/ λ

[tex] = \frac{6.63 \times {10}^{ - 34} \times 3 \times {10}^{8} } {5.32 \times 10 {}^{ - 8} } [/tex]

[tex]€= 3.73 \times {10}^{ - 18} [/tex]

w=h.f

[tex] = 6.63 \times {10}^{ - 34} \times 9.7 \times {10}^{14} [/tex]

[tex] = 6.43 {10}^{ - 19} j[/tex]

KE = € - W

[tex]37.3 \times {10}^{ - 19} - 6.43 \times {10}^{ - 19} [/tex]

[tex]kE = 30.87 \times {10}^{ - 19} [/tex]
