When a piece of metal is illuminated by a monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$,the stopping potential is $3 V_{s}$. When the same surface is illuminated by light of wavelength $2 \lambda$,the stopping potential becomes $V_{s}$. The value of the threshold wavelength for photoelectric emission is:

This question has Statement $1$ and Statement $2.$ Of the four choices given after the Statements,choose the one that best describes the two Statements.
Statement $1:$ $A$ metallic surface is irradiated by a monochromatic light of frequency $v > v_0$ (the threshold frequency). If the incident frequency is now doubled,the photocurrent and the maximum kinetic energy are also doubled.
Statement $2:$ The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from a surface is linearly dependent on the frequency of the incident light. The photocurrent depends only on the intensity of the incident light.

Two photons of energies twice and thrice the work function of a metal are incident on the metal surface. Then,the ratio of maximum velocities of the photoelectrons emitted in the two cases respectively,is

When a photon of light collides with a metal surface, the number of electrons (if any) coming out is:

Two identical photo-cathodes receive light of frequencies $f_1$ and $f_2$. If the velocities of the photo-electrons (of mass $m$) coming out are $v_1$ and $v_2$ respectively,then:
