Answer: Wavelength of 424 nm can produce photoelectrons from silver
Explanation:
[tex]\phi=h\times \nu_o=\frac{hc}{\lambda}[/tex]
[tex]\phi[/tex] = work function = energy of photon
h = Planck's constant = [tex]6.63\times 10^{-34}Js[/tex]
[tex]\nu_0[/tex] = frequency of the metal
c = speed of light = [tex]3\times 10^8m/s[/tex]
[tex]\lambda[/tex] =longest wavelength of the radiation
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the wavelength of the photons.
[tex]\lambda=\frac{hc}{\phi}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda=\frac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8m/s}{2.93\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}J}[/tex] ( as 1ev=[tex]1.6\times 10^{-19}J[/tex] )
[tex]\lambda=4.24\times 10^{-7}m[/tex]
[tex]1nm=10^{-9}m[/tex]
[tex]\lambda=424nm[/tex]
Here, wavelength of 424 nm can produce photoelectrons from silver
