$A$ photon of energy $E$ ejects a photoelectron from a metal surface whose work function is $W_0$. If this electron enters into a uniform magnetic field of induction $B$ in a direction perpendicular to the field and describes a circular path of radius $r$,then the radius $r$ is given by,(in the usual notation)

  • A
    $\frac{\sqrt{2 m(E-W_0)}}{e B}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2 m(E-W_0) e B}$
  • C
    $\frac{\sqrt{2 e(E-W_0)}}{m B}$
  • D
    $\frac{\sqrt{2 m(E-W_0)}}{e B}$

An electron and a proton are separated by a large distance. The electron starts approaching the proton with an initial kinetic energy of $3 \, eV$. The proton captures the electron and forms a hydrogen atom in the second excited state. The resulting photon is incident on a photosensitive metal with a threshold wavelength of $4000 \, Å$. What is the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectron? (In $eV$)

If the stopping potential of photoelectrons emitted by a source placed at a distance of $0.2 \ m$ from a photocell is $0.6 \ V$,then the stopping potential of photoelectrons emitted by the same source placed at a distance of $0.6 \ m$ from the photocell will be .......... $V$.

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:

In a photoelectric experiment, the slope of the graph drawn between stopping potential $(V_s)$ along the $y$-axis and the frequency $(\nu)$ of incident radiation along the $x$-axis is (Planck's constant $h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \text{ Js}$)
