Explanation

The text states: 'For example, in the familiar phenomenon of seeing an object by our eye, both descriptions are important. The gathering and focussing mechanism of light by the eye-lens is well described in the wave picture.'

NEET 2023

The work functions of Caesium (Cs), Potassium (K) and Sodium (Na) are $2.14\ \text{eV}$, $2.30\ \text{eV}$ and $2.75\ \text{eV}$ respectively. If incident electromagnetic radiation has an incident energy of $2.20\ \text{eV}$, which of these photosensitive surfaces may emit photoelectrons?

Explanation

Photoemission requires photon energy $\ge$ work function. Only $W_{Cs} = 2.14 < 2.20$ eV.

NEET 2024

The graph which shows the variation of $\left(\dfrac{1}{\lambda^2}\right)$ and its kinetic energy, $E$ is (where $\lambda$ is de Broglie wavelength of a free particle):

Explanation

$E = h^2/(2m\lambda^2)$, so $1/\lambda^2 \propto E$ — straight line through origin.

NEET 2024

If $c$ is the velocity of light in free space, the correct statements about photon among the following are:

A. The energy of a photon is $E = h\nu$.

B. The velocity of a photon is $c$.

C. The momentum of a photon, $p = \dfrac{h\nu}{c}$.

D. In a photon-electron collision, both total energy and total momentum are conserved.

E. Photon possesses positive charge.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Explanation

A–D true; E false (photons have zero charge).

NEET 2025

A photon and an electron (mass $m$) have the same energy $E$. The ratio $(\lambda_{\text{photon}}/\lambda_{\text{electron}})$ of their de Broglie wavelengths is: ($c$ is the speed of light)

Explanation

$\lambda_{ph} = \dfrac{hc}{E}$, $\lambda_e = \dfrac{h}{\sqrt{2mE}}$. Ratio $= \dfrac{hc/E}{h/\sqrt{2mE}} = c\sqrt{\dfrac{2m}{E}}$.

NEET 2025

Which of the following options represent the variation of photoelectric current with property of light shown on the x-axis?

IA: Intensity IB: Intensity IC: Frequency ID: Frequency

Explanation

Photoelectric (saturation) current is proportional to intensity (graph A) but is independent of frequency, so the current-vs-frequency graphs C and D are wrong. Only A is correct.
