Class 12PhysicsDual Nature of Radiation and matterEinstein's Photoelectric Equation and Energy Quantum of Radiation
MediumThe threshold frequency of a metal is $f_0$. When light of frequency $2f_0$ is incident on the metal plate,the maximum velocity of the photoelectrons is $v_1$. When the frequency of the incident radiation is increased to $5f_0$,the maximum velocity of the photoelectrons emitted is $v_2$. The ratio of $v_1$ to $v_2$ is:
- A$v_1/v_2 = 1/2$
- B$v_1/v_2 = 1/8$
- C$v_1/v_2 = 1/16$
- D$v_1/v_2 = 1/4$
