Ajani is trying to experimentally measure Planck's constant h. He does this by shining different wavelengths of monochro- matic (i. e., single-wavelength) EM radiation on a metal plate with unknown work function W, and then measuring the stop- ping voltage required to bring the ejected electrons to a halt. When he uses λ1= 400 nm, he finds that a stopping voltage of V1 = 0.7 V is required. When he uses λ2 = 500 nm, he finds that a stopping voltage of V2= 0.2 V is required. Based on these two data points, what is Ajani's measurement of Planck's constant?

h = 1.01 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

Explanation:

The energy applied by the voltage must be equal to the energy associated with the wavelength of light:

where,

e = charge on electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

V = stopping potential

h = Planck's Constant = ?

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of light

For λ = 400 nm = 4 x 10⁻⁷ m, V = 0.7 V:

h = 1.49 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

For λ = 500 nm = 5 x 10⁻⁷ m, V = 0.2 V:

h = 0.53 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

Taking average of both values:

h = 1.01 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

the entire statement is true and correct.  

there's no diagram, nothing is illustrated, and no question is asked.
