(SUBJECTIVE TYPE)
PARAGRAPH (61 to 63) :
When a photon of sufficient energy strikes an electron in the atom of the metal, it transfers its
energy instantaneously to the electron during the collision and the electron is ejected without
any time lag or delay. Greater the energy possessed by the photon, greater will be transfer of
energy to the electron and greater the kinetic energy of the ejected electron. In other words,
kinetic energy of the ejected electron is proportional to the frequency of the electromagnetic
radiation. Since the striking photon has energy equal to hv and the minimum energy required
to eject the electron is hv0 (is also called work function, W0 ) then the difference in energy
 hv  hv0  is transferred as the kinetic energy of the photoelectron. Following the
conservation of energy principle, the kinetic energy of the ejected electron is given by the
1
equation. hv  hv0  mev 2

kinetic energy of the fastest photo-electron would have been 49.18 eV. What is the
principal quantum number of excited state ?
