Question

A light source of wavelength equation illuminates a metal surface and electron are ejected with the maximum kinetic energy 2 eV. If the same surface is illuminated by a light source of wavelength equation, then calculate the maximum kinetic energy of the ejected electron. (Work function of metal is 1 eV)

The photoelectric equation is [ K_{\text{max}} = h\nu - \phi ] where (K_{\text{max}}) is the maximum kinetic energy, (h\nu) is the photon energy, and (\phi) is the work function. The photon energy is related to wavelength by [ E = h\nu = \frac{hc}{\lambda} ] For the first light source of wavelength (\lambda), the maximum kinetic
