(a) Calculate the energy of each photon.
Obtain the frequency from the wavelength:
c=fλ→f=λc=0.300×10−6m3.00×108m/sf=1.00×1015HzE=hf=(6.63×10−34J⋅s)(1.00×1015Hz)=6.63×10−19J=(6.63×10−19J)(1.60×10−19J1.00eV)=4.14eV
(b) Find the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons.
KEmax=hf−ϕ=4.14eV−2.46eV=1.68eV
(c) Compute the cutoff wavelength.
Convert ϕ from electron volts to joules:
ϕ=2.46eV=(2.46eV)(1.60×10−19J/eV)=3.94×10−19J
Find the cutoff wavelength
λc=ϕhc=3.94×10−19J(6.63×10−34J⋅s)(3.00×108m/s)=5.05×10−7m=505nm
