Explanation / Answer

Photo electric equation

E = W+k.e

W = hc/lambda0 work function

k max = eV0 , V0 is stopping potential

E = hc/lambda0+ e*V0

so work function W is  

W = E - k.e max

W = (h*c/lambda)- eV0

W = ((6.626*10^-34*2.998*10^8)/(50*10^-9))- (1.602*10^-19*22)

W = 4.485496*10^-19 J

for lambda = 100 nm, V0 = 9.28 V

W = (h*c/lambda)- eV0

W = ((6.626*10^-34*2.998*10^8)/(100*10^-9))- (1.602*10^-19*9.28)

W = 4.998188*10^-19 J

for lambda = 150 nm, V0 = 5.17 V

W = (h*c/lambda)- eV0

W = ((6.626*10^-34*2.998*10^8)/(150*10^-9))- (1.602*10^-19*5.17)

W = 4.9608253*10^-19 J

for lambda = 200 nm, V0 = 3.13 V

W = (h*c/lambda)- eV0

W = ((6.626*10^-34*2.998*10^8)/(200*10^-9))- (1.602*10^-19*3.13)

W = 4.918114*10^-19 J

  

for lambda =250 nm, V0 = 1.92 V

W = (h*c/lambda)- eV0

W = ((6.626*10^-34*2.998*10^8)/(250*10^-9))- (1.602*10^-19*1.92)

W = 4.8700592*10^-19 J

for lambda =300 nm, V0 = 1.05 V

W = (h*c/lambda)- eV0

W = ((6.626*10^-34*2.998*10^8)/(300*10^-9))- (1.602*10^-19*1.05)

W = 4.93948267*10^-19 J

the average of the above values is W = 4.86203 *10^-19 J
