1. An uncharged zinc plate becomes positively charged when irradiated by ultraviolet
radiations. What is the phenomenon due to?
Answer
The phenomenon of electron emission is called photoelectric effect.

Frequency of incident radiation was kept constant.
3. Are matter waves electromagnetic?
Answer
No, Matter waves are not electromagnetic as they are associated with neutral particles.
They are probability waves which tell the probability of location of particle in a certain
region of space.

2 Marks Questions and Answers
1. An electron and an alpha particle have the same de-Broglie wavelength associated with
them. How are their kinetic energies related to each other?
Answer
λelectron=λα
de-Broglie wavelength associated with a particle of mass m and energy E is
λ = h/√2mE
h/√2meEe = h/√2maEa
That is kinetic energy of electron and a particle are in inverse ratio of these masses.
3. 2. Electrons are emitted from the surface when green light is incident on it, but no
electrons are ejected when yellow light is incident on it. Do you expect electrons to be
ejected when surface is exposed to (i) red light (ii) blue light?
Answer
(i) The wavelength of red light is longer than threshold wavelength hence no
electron will be emitted with red lights.
(ii) The wavelength of blue light is smaller than threshold wavelength hence will be
ejected.
3. Draw a graph showing the variation of stopping potential with frequency of incident
radiation in relation to photoelectric effect. Deduce an expression for the slope of this
graph using Einstein’s photoelectric equation.
Answer
From Einstein’s photoelectric equation
Ek = hv – hv0 V0
eV0 = hv – hv0
Vo = (h/e).v –(h/e).v0v0 ν
Clearly Vo – v graph is a straight line of form y = mx + c; the slope of graph is m = h/e
4. Two lines A and B shown in the graph represent the de-Broglie wavelength (λ) as a
function of 1/√V (V is the accelerating potential) for two particles having the same
charge. Which of the two represents the particle of smaller mass?
B
λ A
1/√V
4. Answer
De-Broglie wavelengthλ = h/√2mqV or λ = h/√2mq . 1/√V
The graph of λ versus 1/√V is a straight line of slope h/√2mq α 1/√m. the slope of line B
is large. So particle B has smaller mass.
5. If the frequency of light falling on a metal is doubled, what will be the effect on photo
current and the maximum kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons?
Answer
The photocurrent does not depend on the frequency of incident radiation, hence the
photocurrent remains unchanged. The maximum kinetic energy increases with increase
of frequency, given by EK = hν – W
If frequency is doubled, EK’ = 2 hν– W
EK’ / EK= ( 2 hν – 2W +W) / (hν – W)
= 2 + W / (hν – W)
˃ 2
i.e maximum kinetic energy will increase to slightly more than double value.
3 Mark Questions and Answers:
1. Radiations of frequency 1015 Hz are incident on two photosensitive surfaces A and B.
following observations are recorded.
Surface A: No Photoemission takes place.
Surface B: Photoemission takes place but photoelectrons have zero energy.
Explain the above observations on the basis of Einstein’s photoelectric equation. How
will the observation with surface B change when wavelength of incident light is
decreased?
Answer
Einstein’s Photoelectric equation is
Hν = W + Ek→Ek= hν – W orEk = hν – hν0
Where W is work function of metal, ν is frequency of incident light and ν0 is threshold
frequency.
5. Surface A: As no photoemission takes place; energy of incident photon is less than the
work function.
In other words, the frequency v = 1015 Hz of incident light is less than the threshold
frequency (v0)
Surface B: As phenomenon takes place with zero kinetic energy of photoelectrons
(i.e, Ek = 0), then equation (1) gives W = hv or v0 = v.
i.e., energy of incident photon is equal to work function. In other words, threshold
frequency of metal is equal to frequency of incident photon i.e., v0 = 1015 Hz. When
wavelength of incident light is decreased, the energy of incident photon becomes more
than the work function, so photoelectrons emitted will have finite kinetic energy given
by Ek = (hc/λ )– W.
2. In a photoelectric experiment, an incident radiation of wavelength λ emits photo
electrons with maximum kinetic energy E. Show that to get the electrons with energy
2E; the wavelength of the incident radiations should be hcλ/(Eλ + hc)?
Answer
We have E = hv – φ0 = (hc/λ ) - φ0
For electron with energy 2E, let the wavelength be λ1
Then 2E = (hc/λ1) - φ0
or(2hc/λ)- 2φ0 = (hc/λ1) - φ0
hc/λ1 = (2hc/λ) - φ0
= 2hc/λ + E – hc/λ
= hc/λ + E = (hc + Eλ)/λ
λ1= hcλ/(Eλ + hc)
3. Assuming that 1 % of the photon in a 39.8 Wm-2 intensity beam of wavelength 5000 Å
cause emission of photoelectrons, calculate the resulting photoelectric current ?
Answer
Let the total number of photons in the beam/sec be n
Then nhv = 39.8
Or nhc/λ = 39.8
N = 39.8 x λ/hc = 39.8 x 5000 x 1010 / (6.63 x 10-34 x 3 x 108) = (199/19.89) x 1019 = 1020
No of photoelectrons emitted/sec = no of photons absorbed
= 1 % of 1020 = 1018
Current = 1018e = 1018 x 1.6 x 10-19
= 0.16 A = 160mA.
6. 4. The human eye needs a minimum intensity of 10-10 Wm-2 to produce sensation of sight.
If the area of the pupil is 10-6 m2 and the wavelength of incident light is 5600 Å; what
should be the minimum number of photons entering the pupil / sec to excite the sense
of sight?
Answer
Minimum intensity detectable = 10-10 W/m2
Minimum energy required on pupil
= 10-10 W/m2 x 10-6 m2
= 10-16 joule/sec
Let the number of photons entering the eye be n/sec
Then n.hv = 10-16
n = 10-16/(6.63 x 10-34 x c/λ)
= 10-16 x 5600 x 10-10/(6.63 x 10-34 x 3 x 108) = 5600/19.89 = 283
5. An electron moving with velocity v and a photon have same de-Broglie wavelength.
What will be the ratio of their energy values?
Answer
We have λe =λph
h/Pe = h/Pph→Pe = Pph
ormv = Eph/c (1)
Now 1/2mv2 = Ee→ m = 2Ee/v2
From (1) 2Ee/v = Eph/c
Hence Ee/Eph = v/2c.
