In a photoelectric effect experiment, the kinetic energy of an emitted electron is $1.986 \times 10^{-19} \ J$, when a radiation of frequency $1.0 \times 10^{15} \ s^{-1}$ hits the metal. What is the threshold frequency of the metal (in $s^{-1}$)? (Planck's constant $= 6.62 \times 10^{-34} \ J \ s$)

  • A
    $7.0 \times 10^{14}$
  • B
    $5.8886 \times 10^{14}$
  • C
    $7.0 \times 10^{-15}$
  • D
    $7.0 \times 10^{15}$

Quantum theory was postulated by :

The energy of an electron in the excited hydrogen atom is $-3.4 \ eV$. Then according to Bohr's theory,the angular momentum of the electron in that excited state is ($h=$ Planck's constant).

The postulate of Bohr theory that electrons jump from one orbit to the other,rather than flow,is according to:
