Question

When photons of energy 4.25 eV strike the surface of metal A, the ejected photoelectrons have maximum kinetic energy TA eV and de-Broglie wavelength λA. The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons liberated from another metal B by photons of energy 4.70 eV is TB=(TA1.5) eV. If de-Broglie wavelength of these photoelectrons is λB=2λA, then

A
TA=2.00 eV
