Class 12PhysicsDual Nature of Radiation and matterEinstein's Photoelectric Equation and Energy Quantum of Radiation
MediumIn a photoelectric emission experiment,the stopping potential for a given metal is $V$ volt,when radiation of wavelength $\lambda$ is used. If radiation of wavelength $2 \lambda$ is used with the same metal,then the stopping potential (in volt) will be. [Given: $c = \text{velocity of light}$,$e = \text{charge on electron}$,$h = \text{Planck's constant}$]
- A$V - \frac{hc}{2e\lambda}$
- B$V + \frac{hc}{2e\lambda}$
- C$\frac{V}{2}$
- D$2V$
