An electron is accelerated through a potential difference of \(10,000~\text{V}\). Its de-Broglie wavelength is, (nearly):

1. \(12.2~\text{nm}\)
2. \(12.2\times 10^{-13}~\text{m}\)
3. \(12.2\times 10^{-12}~\text{m}\)
4. \(12.2\times 10^{-14}~\text{m}\)
The momentum of a photon of energy 1 MeV in kg m/s, will be:

When photons of energy h fall on an aluminium plate (of work function E0), photoelectrons of maximum kinetic energy K are ejected. If the frequency of the radiation is doubled, the maximum kinetic energy of the ejected photoelectrons will be:
1.
2. 2K
3. K
4. K+h
A photocell employs a photo-electric effect to convert:
1. | change in the frequency of light into a change in electric voltage. |
2. | change in the intensity of illumination into a change in photoelectric current. |
3. | change in the intensity of illumination into a change in the work function of the photocathode. |
4. | change in the frequency of light into a change in the electric current. |
Monochromatic light of frequency 6.0×1014 Hz is produced by a laser. The power emitted is 2×10-3 W. The number of photons emitted, on average, by the source per second is:
1.
2.
3.
4.
A \(5~\text W\) emits monochromatic light of wavelength \(5000~\mathring{A}.\) When placed \(0.5~\text m\) away, it liberates photoelectrons from a photosensitive metallic surface. When the source is moved \(1.0~\text m\) away, the number of photoelectrons liberated is reduced by a factor of:
1. \(4\)
2. \(8\)
3. \(16\)
4. \(2\)
A particle of mass \(1\) mg has the same wavelength as an electron moving with a velocity of \(3\times 10^{6}\) ms-1. The velocity of the particle is:

1. \(2.7 \times 10^{-18}~\text{ms}^{-1}\)
2. \(9 \times 10^{-2}~\text{ms}^{-1}\)
3. \(3 \times 10^{-31}~\text{ms}^{-1}\)
4. \(2.7 \times 10^{-21}~\text{ms}^{-1}\)
1. | excitation of electrons in the atoms |
2. | a collision between the atoms of the gas |
3. | collisions between the charged particles emitted from the cathode and the atoms of the gas |
4. | a collision between different electrons of the atoms of the gas |
