In a photoelectric effect set up two metals with work function φ1 and φ2 are used. For the same value of incident frequency, the stopping potential for metal 1 is twice that for metal 2. If the incident energy is 5eV and the φ1 = 1.5eV. Find φ2. (in eV)
Solution=
eVs1=hv- Φ1
eVs2=hv- Φ2
eVs1= eVs2
eVs1/eVs2 = hv- Φ2/ hv- Φ1=1/2
2hv-2Φ2 = 1hv- Φ1
2Φ2 = hv+ Φ1
2Φ2 = 5+1.5
2Φ2 = 6.5eV
Φ2 = 3.25eV
The correct answer would be 3.25eV
A particle is in an infinite square well potential with walls at x = 0 and x = L. If the particle is in the state where A is a constant, what is the probability that the particle is between x = L/3 and x = 2L/3 upto 2 decimal places.
Now A2 = 2/L = from normalization of ψ
∴ Probability = 1/3 = 0.33
The correct answer is: 0.33
The figure shows one of the possible energy eigenfunction ψ(x) for a particle bouncing freely back and forth along the x-axis between impenetrable walls located at x ± a The potential energy equals zero for |x| < a. If the energy of the particle is 2eV when it is in the quantum state associated with its eigen function, what is its energy when it is in the quantum state of lowest energy (in eV)?
The number of nodes in a wavefunction determine the energy level. In this case there is just one node. Thus, this is E2. The lowest would be E1.

An electron in a metal encounters a barrier layer of height 6eV and thickness 0.5 nm. If the electron energy of 5eV, what is the probability of tunneling through the barrier?
We know,

With a = 0.5 × 10–9 m, m = 9.1 × 10–31 kg, V0 = 6eV, E = 5V and
Hence the percentage of probability of tunneling is 1.33.
The correct answer is: 1.33

The solution of the schrödinger equation for the ground state of hydrogen is where a0 is the Bohr radius and r is the distance from the origin. The most probable value of r in units of a0.
For a hydrogen atom,
Now, for most probable r. We need to minimize the probability w.r.t. r.
Putting (2) in (1)
The correct answer is: 1
