When the light of frequency (where is threshold frequency), is incident on a metal plate, the maximum velocity of electrons emitted is . When the frequency of the incident radiation is increased to , the maximum velocity of electrons emitted from the same plate is . The ratio of to is:

  1. A
  2. B
  3. C
  4. D

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Einstein's photoelectric equation: .Case 1: $
h(5\nu_0) = h\nu_0 + \frac{1}{2}mv_2^2
$\frac{1}{2}mv_2^2 = 4h\nu_0 \quad \dots(2)
Divide (1) by (2):
