The maximum kinetic energy is given by the photoelectric effect as: K = hv — φO Where, h = Planck’s constant = 6.626 x 10⁻34 Js Therefore ,K = (6.626 x 10⁻34) x ( 6.0 x 1014) /(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) -2.140 = 2.485Read more

    Work function of caesium metal, φO = 2.14 eV and

    frequency of light, v = 6.0 x 1014 Hz

    Ans (a).
    The maximum kinetic energy is given by the photoelectric effect as: K = hv — φO

    Where, h = Planck’s constant = 6.626 x 10⁻34 Js

    Therefore ,K = (6.626 x 10⁻34) x ( 6.0 x 1014) /(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) -2.140

    = 2.485 -2.140 = 0.345 eV

    Hence, the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons is 0.345 eV.

    Ans (b).
    For stopping potential V0 we can write the equation for kinetic energy as:

    K=e V0

    Therefore, V0= K/e = (0.345 x 1.6 x10⁻¹⁹) /(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ )

    Hence ,the stopping potential of the material is 0.345 V

    Ans (c).
    Maximum speed of the emitted photoelectrons = v

    Hence, the relation for kinetic energy can be written as:

    K = 1/2  x (mv²)

    Where, m = Mass of an electron = 9.1 x 10-31 kg

    v² =2K /m

    = 2 x (0.345 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ )/(9.1 x 10-31) = 0.1104 x 10¹²

    v=3.323 x 10⁵ m/s = 332.3 km/s

    Hence, the maximum speed of the emitted photoelectrons is 332.3 km/s.

    Ans (a).
    The initial velocity of the particle is either parallel or anti-parallel to the magnetic field. Hence, it travels along a straight path without suffering any deflection in the field.

    Ans (b).

    Yes, the final speed of the charged particle will be equal to its initial speed. This is because magnetic force can change the direction of velocity, but not its magnitude.

    Ans (c).

    An electron travelling from West to East enters a chamber having a uniform electrostatic field in the North-South direction. This moving electron can remain un-deflected if the electric force acting on it is equal and opposite of magnetic field. Magnetic force is directed towards the South. According to Fleming’s left hand rule, magnetic field should be applied in a vertically downward direction.

    Inner radius of the toroid, r₁ = 25 cm = 0.25 m

    Outer radius of the toroid, r₂ = 26 cm = 0.26 m

    Number of turns on the coil, N = 3500

    Current in the coil, I = 11 A

    Ans  (a).
    Magnetic field outside a toroid is zero. It is non-zero only inside the core of a toroid, (b) Magnetic field inside the core of a toroid is given by the relation, B =

    Where, μ0 = Permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ TmA⁻¹

    l = length of toroid = 2π (r₁ + r₂)/2=2 π (0.25 +0.26)=0.51 π

    Therefore B = (4π x 10⁻⁷ x 3500 x 11 )/0.51 π = 3 .0 x 10⁻² T

    Ans (c).

    Magnetic field in the empty space surrounded by the toroid is zero.

    The distance between electron-proton of a hydrogen atom, d = 0.53 A

    Charge on an electron, q₁ = -1.6 x 10-19 C Charge on a proton, q2 = +1.6 x 10-19 C

    Ans (a).

    Potential at infinity is zero.

    Potential energy of the system, p-e

    = Potential energy at infinity – Potential energy at distance, d

    = 0 – (q₁-q₂)/4πε0 d

    Where, ε0 is the permittivity of free space and

    1/4πε0 =9x 10⁹ Nm²C⁻²

    Therefore Potential Energy = 0- (9x 10⁹) x (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)² /(0.53 x 10¹⁰)

    = -43.7x 10⁻¹⁹ J , (Since 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = 1 eV)

    Therefore  Potential energy =-43.7×10⁻¹⁹ = -(43.7 x 10⁻¹⁹)/(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) =-27.2 eV

    Therefore, the potential energy of the system is -27.2 eV.

    Ans (b).

    Kinetic energy is half of the magnitude of potential energy.

    Kinetic energy = 1/2 x(-27.2) = 13.6 eV

    Total energy = 13.6 – 27.2 = 13.6 eV

    Therefore, the minimum work required to free the electron is 13.6 eV.

    Ans (c).

    When zero of potential energy is taken, d = 1.06 A

    Therefore Potential energy of the system = Potential energy at d₁- Potential energy at d

    = (q₁q₂)/4πε0 d₁   –   27.2 eV

    = (9 x 10⁹) x (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)²  / ( 1.06 x 10⁻¹⁰)   -27.2 eV

    =21.73 x 10⁻¹⁹ J – 27.2 eV =

    =13.58 eV – 27.2 eV= – 13.6 eV
