Part A
Rank these metals on the basis of their cutoff frequency. Rank from largest to smallest. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.
Part B
Rank these metals on the basis of the maximum wavelength of light needed to free electrons from their surface. Rank from largest to smallest. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.
Part C
Each metal is illuminated with 400 nm (3.10 eV) light. Rank the metals on the basis of the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons. (If no electrons are emitted from a metal, the maximum kinetic energy is zero, so rank that metal as smallest.) Rank from largest to smallest. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.

The concept required to solve the given problem is work function and cut off frequency.
Initially, calculate the work function of different materials based on their cut off frequency. Later on, rank the metals based on the wavelength of light needed to free electrons from their surface and finally rank the metals on the basis of the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons will be calculated.
Cut off frequency is the minimum frequency required to remove electrons from the metal surface.
The expression for the Einstein photoelectric equation is,
Here, K is the kinetic energy of the particle, h is the Planck’s constant, is the frequency of incident light, and is the work function.
(A)
The relationship between work function and cut off frequency is,
Here, is the work function, is the Planck’s constant, and is the frequency of incident radiation.
From the above equation, the work function is directly proportional to the cut-off frequency and when a metal has low a work function, it is easy for the light of low frequency to emit electrons. Therefore, low work function results in low cut-off frequency.
(B)
The work function and wavelength are related as,
Here, is the work function, c is the speed of light, h is the planck’s constant, and is the wavelength of light.
From the equation, the work function is inversely related with the wavelength, so the metals with smallest work function will have maximum wavelength.
(C)
The Einstein photoelectric equation is,
Here, K is the kinetic energy of the particle, h is the Planck’s constant, is the frequency of incident light, and is the work function.
For cesium:
Substitute 3.10 eV for and 2.1 eV for in the above equation .
For potassium:
Substitute 3.10 eV for and 2.30 eV for in the above equation .
For magnesium:
Substitute 3.10 eV for and 3.70 eV for in the above equation .
Similarly, for other materials, the energy will be negative and hence no ejection of electrons will take places from its surfaces.
