#22 Five photons have the following energy values. Which one represents the visible light photon? (a) 24.8 eV (b)12.4 eV (c) 6.2 eV (d) 2.48 eV (e) 1.24 eV

#22 D. Photons in the visible region have wave length range from 4000 Ǻ to 7000 Ǻ (approximately). The product of the energy in eV and the wave length in Angstrom in the case of any photon is (very nearly). The energy of the 4000 Ǻ photon in electron volt is 12400/4000 = 3.1 eV. The energy of the 7000 Ǻ photon in electron volt is 12400/7000 = 1.77 eV. Therefore, the photon in the visible region is given in option (d).

#22 If you were asked to calculate the wave length of the photon of energy 2.48 eV, you will have λ = 12400/2.48 = 5000 Ǻ [You can calculate the wave length using the relation E = hc/λ where E is the energy in joule, h is Planck’s constant, c is the speed of light and λ is the wave length (in metre). In the above problem E = 2.48×1.6×10 –19 joule (on converting the energy in eV into joule), c = 3×10 8 ms –1 and h = 6.6×10 –34 Js. But this is time consuming].

#23 When electromagnetic radiations of wave length λ is incident on a photosensitive surface, the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted from the surface is 2 eV. When the wave length of the incident radiations is 2λ, the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted from the surface is 0.5 eV. The threshold wave length (maximum wave length) for photoelectric emission from the surface is (a) λ/2 (b) λ (c) 3λ/2 (d) 2λ (e) 3λ

#23 E. From Einstein’s equation, we have for the two cases hc/λ = hc/λ eV and hc/2λ = hc/λ eV where h is Planck’s constant, c is the speed of light and λ 0 is the threshold wave length. We have expressed the kinetic energy in electron volt itself for convenience, with the understanding that all terms are in electron volt. Multiplying the second equation by 4 and subtracting the first equation from it, we obtain hc/λ = 3hc/λ 0 from which λ 0 = 3λ.
