Q61
A beam of electron passes undeflected through mutually perpendicular electric and magnetic fields. If the electric field is switched off, and the same magnetic field is maintained, the electrons move
A in a circular orbit
B along a parabolic path
C along a straight line
D in an elliptical orbit.
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

In magnetic field a charged particle moves in a circular orbit.

Q62
Monochromatic light of frequency 6.0 × \times 10 14 Hz is produced by a laser. The power emitted is 2 × \times 10 -3 W. The number of photons emitted, on the average, by the source per second is
A 5 ×1016 \times {10^{16}}
B 5 ×1017 \times {10^{17}}
C 5 ×1014 \times {10^{14}}
D 5 ×1015 \times {10^{15}}
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Since p = nhν\nu \Rightarrow n =

phν{p \over {h\nu }}

=

2×1036.6×1034×6×1014{{2 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}} \over {6.6 \times {{10}^{34}} \times 6 \times {{10}^{14}}}}

= 5

×1015\times {10^{15}}
Q63
In a discharge tube ionization of enclosed gas is produced due to collisions between
A neutral gas atoms/molecules
B positive ions and neutral atoms/molecules
C negative electrons and neutral atoms/molecules
D photons and neutral atoms/molecules.
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

In a discharge tube ionization of enclosed gas is produced due to collisions between negative electrons and neutral atoms/molecules.

Q64
When photons of energy hυ\upsilon fall on an aluminimum plate (of work function E 0 ), photoelectrons of maximum kinetic energy K are ejected. If the frequency of radiation is doubled, the maximum kinetic energy of the ejected photoelectrons will be
A K + hυ\upsilon
B K + E 0
C 2K
D K.
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

According to Einstein’s photoelectric equation, K = hν\nu – E 0 ... (i) and K' = h(2ν\nu) – E 0 ... (ii) = 2hν\nu – E 0 = hν\nu + hν\nu – E 0 K'= hν\nu + K [using (i)]

Q65
A photocell employs photoelectric effect to convert
A change in the frequency of light into a change in the electric current
B change in the frequency of light into a change in electric voltage
C change in the intensity of illumination into a change in photoelectric current
D change in the intensity of illumination into a change in the work function of the photocathode.
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

The photoelectric current is directly proportional to the intensity of illumination.

Therefore a change in the intensity of the incident radiation will change the photocurrent also.

Q66
The momentum of a photon of energy 1 MeV in kg m/s will be
A 5 × \times 10 -22
B 0.33 × \times 10 6
C 7 × \times 10 -24
D 10 -22
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Momentum of photon p = E/c \therefore p =

1×106×1.6×10193×108{{1 \times {{10}^6} \times 1.6 \times {{10}^{19}}} \over {3 \times {{10}^8}}}

= 5 ×\times 10 -22

Q67
A photosensitive metallic surface has work function, hυ\upsilon 0 . If photons of energy 2hυ02h{\upsilon _0} fall on this surface, the electrons come out with a maximum velocity of 4 × \times 10 6 m/s. When the photon energy is increased to 5 hυ\upsilon 0 , then maximum velocity of photoelectrons will be
A 2 × \times 10 7 m/s
B 2 × \times 10 6 m/s
C 8 × \times 10 6 m/s
D 8 × \times 10 5 m/s
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

=

12mv2{1 \over 2}m{v^2}

\Rightarrow v = 8 ×\times 10 6 m/s

Q68
The work functions for metals A, B and C are respectively 1.92 eV, 2.0 eV and 5 eV. According to Einstein's equation the metals which will emit photoelectrons for a radiation of wavelength 4100 A\mathop A\limits^ \circ is/are
A A only
B A and B only
C all the three metals
D none
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

Energy of photon =

124004100{{12400} \over {4100}}

= 3 eV \therefore A and B will emit photoelectrons.

Q69
J.J. Thomson's cathode-ray tube experiment demonstrated that
A cathode rays are streams of negatively charged ions
B all the maas of an atom is essentially in the nucleus
C the e/m of electrons is much greater than the e/m of protons
D the e/m ratio of the cathode-ray particles changes when a different gas is placed in the discharge tube
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
(em)proton=11837(em)electron{\left( {{e \over m}} \right)_{proton}} = {1 \over {1837}}{\left( {{e \over m}} \right)_{electron}}

\therefore

(em)proton(em)electron{\left( {{e \over m}} \right)_{proton}} \ll {\left( {{e \over m}} \right)_{electron}}
Q70
A photoelectric cell is illuminated by a point source of light 1 m away. When the source is shifted to 2 m then
A each emitted electron carries one quarter of the initial energy
B number of electrons emitted is half the initial number
C each emitted electron carries half the initial energy
D number of electrons emitted is a quarter of the initial number
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

For a light source of power P watt, the intensity at a distance d is given by I =

P4πd2{P \over {4\pi {d^2}}}

\therefore Intensity \propto

1(distance)2{1 \over {{{\left( {dis\tan ce} \right)}^2}}}
