Light is incident on a metallic plate having work function . If the produced photoelectrons have zero kinetic energy then the angular frequency of the incident light is ______ . ()
- (A)✓ Correct
- (B)
- (C)
- (D)
Answer: (A)
Solution
With zero kinetic energy the whole photon energy just meets the work function: , so and the angular frequency is . Substituting and , The angular frequency of the incident light is .
