The threshold frequency for the ejection of electrons from potassium metal is `5.3xx10^(14) s^(-1)`. Will the photon of a radiation having energy `3.3xx10^(-19) J` exhibit photoelectric effect? `(h=6.626xx10^(-34) Js)`

Correct Answer - No
Work function `W=hv_(0)=6.626xx10^(-34)xx5.3xx10^(14)=3.5xx10^(-19)J`
As `W gt` Energy of photon, photoelectric effect will not be exhibited.
