Problem

The threshold frequencies of four metals A, B, C and D are 4.0×1014 Hz4.0\times10^{14}\,\text{Hz}, 5.5×1014 Hz5.5\times10^{14}\,\text{Hz}, 3.2×1014 Hz3.2\times10^{14}\,\text{Hz} and 6.0×1014 Hz6.0\times10^{14}\,\text{Hz} respectively. a. (i) Arrange the metals in increasing order of their work functions. b. (ii) Which metal will emit photoelectrons most readily when illuminated by light of frequency 7.0×1014 Hz7.0\times10^{14}\,\text{Hz}?
