Explanation

$ \phi = hf _0 $ $ = { hc \over \lambda_0 } J = { hc \over \lambda_0 e } eV $ $ \therefore \lambda_0 \alpha {1 \over 0 } $ $ \therefore {\varphi_0( tungsten) \over \varphi _0 (sodium) }= { \varphi (tungsten) \over \varphi (sodium) } ={ 2.3 \over 4.5} $ $ \therefore \lambda_0 tungsten = { 2.3 \over 4.5 } \times 5460 A ^ \circ $ $ = 2790.6 = 2791 A ^ \circ $

Explanation

In the Davisson and Germer experiment, the filament of the electron gun is coated with barium oxide (BaO). This coating helps in the efficient emission of electrons when heated.

Suppose $ \Psi (x,y,z) $ represents a particle in three dimensional space, then probility of finding the particle in the unit volume at a given point x,y,z is .........

Explanation

The probability of finding a particle at a given point in space is directly proportional to the square of the wave function's magnitude, $| \\Psi|^2$. This is because the probability density is given by $\\rho(x,y,z) = | \\Psi(x,y,z)|^2$. Therefore, the correct option is 'directly proportional to $ | \\Psi \\Psi ^ * | $'.

Explanation

$ E = hf = h { C \over \lambda } $ $ = { 6.62 \times 10^ {-34} \times 3.0 \times 10^8 } $ $ = 3.31 \times 10^ {-19 } J $ $ = { 3.31 \times 10^{-19 } \over 1.6 \times 10 ^ {-19 }} eV $ $ = 2.06 eV $

Explanation

$ hf_0 = \phi $ $ \therefore f_0 = { \phi \over h } = { 5.3 \times 10^{-19} \times 1.6 \over 6.62 \times 10^ {-34} } Hz $ $ = 1.3 \times 10^{15 } Hz $

An electron moving with velocity 0.6c, then de-brogly wavelength associated with is........... (rest mars of electron, $ m_0 = 9.1 \times 10^{-31} k/s h = 6.63 \times 10^ {-34} Js $)

Explanation

$ eV_0 = { 1 \over 2 } mv^2 max = 3.8 eV $ $ \therefore V_0 = 3.8 V $ $ {1 \over 2 } mv^2 max = eV_0 = hf - \phi = hf - hf_0 = h ({c \over \lambda} - {c \over \lambda_0} ) $

In an experiment to determine photoelectric charactheristics for a metal the intensity of radiation is kept constant. Strating with threshold frequency. Now, frequency of incident radiation is increased. It is observed that ........

Explanation

When the frequency of the incident radiation is increased, while keeping the intensity constant, the energy of each photon increases according to the relation $E = h\nu$ (where $\nu$ is the frequency and $h$ is Planck's constant). Therefore, the energy of the emitted photoelectrons will increase.
