iPad F 8:25 PM edugen wileyplus com Go Cutnell, Physics, 10e GENERAL PHYSICS (PHY 130-140) Study & Practice Assignment ORION Open Assignment ESOURCES Chapter 29, Problem 11 work 23. When light with a wavelength of 227 nm is incident on a certain metal surface, electrons are ejected with a maximum kinetic energy of 3.so x 10-19 J. Determine the wavelength (in nm) of light that should be used to double the maximum kinetic energy of the electrons ejected from this surface.

Explanation / Answer

he work function Wo is a property of the metal surface itself, so it remains the same for any wavelength of incident light.

Wo = -KEmax + hc/lambda

Wo = -KEmax2 + hc/lambda2= -KEmax1 + hc/lambd1

KEmax2 - KEmax + kc/lambd1 = hc/lambda2

KEmax2 = 2KEmax1

lambda2 = 1/[KEmax1/hc + 1/lambda1]

KEmax1 = 3.5 x 10^-19 J

lambda 1 = 227 nm = 227 x 10^-9 m

h = planck constant

c = speed of light

lambda2 = 1.5912 x 10^-7 m

lambda2 = 159.12 nm
