The rmoionic emission is the process in which electrons emit from solid surface, when it is heated up. According to Richardson current density through solid surface is given by J = AT 2 e –B/KT , Where, T = Temperature, K = Boltzman constant
(i) Calculate dimension of B –
Correct Matrix Matching
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
(i) Sol; (ii) Sol; (iii) Sol
Ans.
(i)
Sol. Dimension of 
The exponent of an exponential function must be dimensionless:

Therefore, 
Now, 
Hence, 
(ii)
Sol. Dimension of 
Current density:

From

(since the exponential term is dimensionless),


(iii)
Sol. Dimension of
