Consider the two following statements $A$ and $B$, and identify the correct choice given in the answers :
$(A)$ In photovoltaic cells, the photoelectric current produced is not proportional to the intensity of incident light.
$(B)$ In gas-filled photoemissive cells, the velocity of photoelectrons depends on the wavelength of the incident radiation.

Light of wavelength $4000 Å$ is incident on a sodium surface for which the threshold wavelength of photoelectrons is $5420 Å$. The work function of sodium is (in $eV$)

The threshold wavelength for the emission of photoelectrons from a material is $5200\, \text{\AA}$. Which of the following monochromatic light sources will cause the emission of photoelectrons from this surface?

$A$ photocell is illuminated by a small bright source placed $d \; m$ away. When the same source of light is placed $\frac{d}{2} \; m$ away,the number of electrons emitted by the photocathode would

The figure shows the variation of photocurrent with anode potential for a photo-sensitive surface for three different radiations. Let ${I_a}, {I_b}$ and ${I_c}$ be the intensities and ${f_a}, {f_b}$ and ${f_c}$ be the frequencies for the curves $a, b$ and $c$ respectively.
