Solution

The correct option is C $\frac{h c}{e V}$
As we know,
$E = e V = h v_{m a x} = \frac{h c}{λ_{m i n}}$
$\Rightarrow λ_{m i n} = \frac{h c}{e V}$

The correct option is C hceVAs we know,E=eV=hvmax=hcλmin⇒λmin=hceV

The correct option is C $\frac{h c}{e V}$
As we know,
$E = e V = h v_{m a x} = \frac{h c}{λ_{m i n}}$
$\Rightarrow λ_{m i n} = \frac{h c}{e V}$
