Answer» Correct Answer - C Let us calculate energy corresponding to `0.2xx10^(-6)`m or `0.2xx10^(-6)xx10^(10)A` or `2000A=(12375)/(2000)=6.1875 eV` `(1)/(2)mv_(max)^(2)=(6.1875-4)eV` or `mv_(max)^(2)=(2xx2.1875xx1.6xx10^(-19))/(9.1xx10^(-31))` or `mv_(max)^(2)=0.769xx10^(12)=0.876xx10^(6)` `=8.76xx10^(5)ms^(-1)` |
