Correct Answer - Option 4 : -3 V
Concept:
According to Einstein’s photoelectric equation maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons,
Incident energy = work function + K.E
KEmax = Ev – ϕ
Calculation:
Case 1: When 5eV is incident
5eV = W + 2eV
W = 3eV
Case 2: When 6eV is incident
6 = 3 + K.E
K.E = 3 eV
To stop the electron, negative potential is required with magnitude of the voltage as (3V)
Hence stopping potential = -3V
