A 160 watt light source is radiating light of wavelength 6200 Å uniformly in all directions. The photon flux at a distance of 1.8 m is of the order of (Planck's constant $6.63 \mathrm{x} {10}^{-34} \mathrm{J}-\mathrm{s}$) :

1. ${10}^2$  ${\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$

2. ${10}^{12}$  ${\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$

3. ${10}^{19}$  ${\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$

4. ${10}^{25}$  ${\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$

An electron in an electron microscope with initial velocity ${\mathrm{V}}_0\hat{i}$ enters a region of a strong transverse electric field ${\mathrm{E}}_0\hat{\mathrm{j}}$. The time taken for the change in its de-Broglie wavelength from the initial value of $\mathrm{\lambda }$ to $\mathrm{\lambda }/3$ is proportional to :

1.  ${\mathrm{E}}_0$

2.  $\frac{1}{{\mathrm{E}}_0}$

3.  $\frac{1}{\sqrt{{\mathrm{E}}_0}}$

4.  $\sqrt{{\mathrm{E}}_0}$

In the case of the photoelectric effect -

1. Since photons are absorbed as a single unit, there is no significant time delay in the emission of photoelectrons.

2. Einstein's analysis gives a critical frequency ${\nu }_0 = \frac{e\varphi }{h}$, where $\varphi$ is the work function and the light of this frequency ejects electrons with maximum kinetic energy.

3. Only a small fraction of the incident photons succeed in ejecting photoelectrons while most of them are absorbed by the system as a whole and generate thermal energy.

4. The maximum kinetic energy of the electrons is dependent on the intensity of radiation.

In the photoelectric effect, which photons of light dislodge electrons with the highest kinetic energy?

1.  photons of dim blue light

2.  photons of bright red light

3.  photons of very dim violet light 

4.  photons of very bright green light

The threshold frequency of sodium for the photoelectric effect corresponds to yellow light. What happens when the bright yellow light is shone on the sodium metal?

1.  No electrons are released from the metal.

2.  The kinetic energy of the electrons increases.

3.  The number of electrons ejected increases.

4.  The threshold frequency of sodium metal increases.

If the work function of a metal is $6.622 \times {10}^{-20} J$ and a ray of electromagnetic radiation with a frequency of $1.0 \times {10}^{14} Hz$ is incident on the metal, what will be the speed of the electrons ejected from the metal?$( Note:h = 6.626 \times {10}^{-34} J-s \mathrm{and} m_e -=9.1 \times {10}^{-31} kg)$

1.  $2.62 \times {10}^{-6} \frac{m}{s}$

2.  $1.07 \times {10}^{-4} \frac{m}{s}$

3.  $9.38 \times {10}^3 \frac{m}{s}$

4.  $3.81 \times {10}^5 \frac{m}{s}$

All of the following statements about the photoelectric effect are true Except:

1. the intensity Of the light beam does not affect the photocurrent.

2. the kinetic energies of the emitted electrons do not depend on the light intensity.

3. a weak beam Of light Of frequency greater than the threshold frequency yields more current than an intense beam of light of frequency lower than the threshold frequency.

4. for the light of a given frequency, the kinetic energy of emitted electrons increases as the value of the work function decreases.

Let $n_r and n_b$ be respectively the number of photons emitted by a red bulb and a blue bulb of equal power in a given time.

1. $n_r=n_b$

2. $n_r<n_b$

3. $n_r>n_b$

4. data insufficient

When a photon of light collides with a metal surface, the number of electrons, (if any) coming out is:

1. only one

2. only two

3. infinite

4. depends upon factors

A point source of light is used in the photoelectric effect. If the source is removed farther from the emitting metal, the stopping potential:

1. will increase

2. will decrease

3. will remain constant

4. will either increase or decrease
