MCQ
In an experiment with photoelectric effect, the stopping potential.
  • A
    increases with increase in the wavelength of the incident light
  • B
    increases with increase in the intensity of the incident light
  • is $\left(\frac{1}{e}\right)$ times the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons
  • D
    decreases with increase in the intensity of the incident light

Answer

Correct option: C.
is $\left(\frac{1}{e}\right)$ times the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons
(C) is $\left(\frac{1}{e}\right)$ times the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons
Sol.
$\begin{aligned} \frac{ hC }{\lambda} & = W + eV _{ s } \\ \frac{ hC }{\lambda} & = W +\left( K _{\max }\right) \\ \therefore V _{ s } & =\frac{ K _{\max }}{ e }\end{aligned}$
