CBSEENPH12038447

The photoelectric cut-off voltage in a certain experiment is 1.5 V. What is the maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted?

Solution
Given, cut-off voltage, Vo = 1.5 V 

Maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted is, 
                  K.E.max = eV0                 = 1.5 × 1.6 × 10-19J                 = 2.4 × 10-19 J
