$V$ (stopping potential) is plotted against $\frac{1}{\lambda}$,where $\lambda$ is the wavelength of incident radiation,for two metals.

  • A
    Metal $1$ may be gold and metal $2$ may be cesium.
  • B
    $\theta_1 > \theta_2$,if metal $1$ is gold and metal $2$ is cesium.
  • C
    $\theta_1 = \theta_2$,for any two metals.
  • D
    $\theta_1 > \theta_2$,if metal $1$ and metal $2$ are gold and copper respectively.

$A$ beam of electromagnetic radiation of intensity $6.4 \times 10^{-5} \; W/cm^{2}$ is comprised of wavelength $\lambda = 310 \; nm$. It falls normally on a metal surface (work function $\varphi = 2 \; eV$) of surface area $1 \; cm^{2}$. If one in $10^{3}$ photons ejects an electron, the total number of electrons ejected in $1 \; s$ is $10^{x}$. Then $x$ is: $(hc = 1240 \; eV \cdot nm, 1 \; eV = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \; J)$

What is the slope of the $V_0 - \nu$ graph? Write its equation. Also,mention whether it depends on the type of material or not.

Radiation of two photon energies,twice and five times the work function of a metal,are incident successively on the metal surface. The ratio of the maximum velocity of photoelectrons emitted in the two cases is:
