Dual Nature of Radiation and Matter
- A 5 watt source emits monochromatic light of wavelength 5000 Å. When placed 0.5 m away, it liberates photo electrons from a photosensitive metallic surface. When the source is moved to a distance of 1.0 m, the number of photo electrons liberated will be reduced by a factor of

Number of emitted electrons NE ∝ Intensity
∝ 1 (Distance)2
Therefore, as distance is doubled, NE decreases by (1/4) times.Correct Option: D

Applying Einstein's formula for photo-electricity
hv = φ + 1 mv2 ; 2
hv = φ + K
φ = hv - K
If we use 2ν frequency then let the kinetic energy becomes K'
So,h . 2ν = φ + K'
2hν = hν – K + K'
K' = hν + KCorrect Option: C
