Question

When light of wavelength 248 nm falls on a metal of threshold energy 3.0 eV, the de-Broglie wavelength of emitted electrons is _______. (Round off to the Nearest Integer).

[ Use : = 1.73, h = 6.63 1034 Js

me = 9.1 1031 kg; c = 3.0 108 ms1; 1eV = 1.6 1019 J]

Correct answer
8.7

Step-by-step explanation

= 248 109 m

w0 = 3 1.6 1019 J

E = w0 + K.E.





= 3.2 1019 J

p =

p =

p = 7.63 1025



= 8.7 1010 = 8.7 9
