When photon of energy 4.0 eV strikes the surface of a metal A, the ejected photoelectrons have maximum kinetic energy TA eV end de-Broglie wavelength λA. The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons liberated from another metal B by photon of energy 4.50 eV is TB = (TA - 1.5)eV. If the de-Broglie wavelength of these photoelectrons λB = 2λA, then the work function of metal B is:
  1. 3 eV
  2. 2 eV
  3. 4 eV
  4. 1.5 eV

Answer

(A) 3 eV
