DifficultIn a photoelectric experiment,a parallel beam of monochromatic light with power of $200 \ W$ is incident on a perfectly absorbing cathode of work function $6.25 \ eV$. The frequency of light is just above the threshold frequency so that the photoelectrons are emitted with negligible kinetic energy. Assume that the photoelectron emission efficiency is $100 \%$. $A$ potential difference of $500 \ V$ is applied between the cathode and the anode. All the emitted electrons are incident normally on the anode and are absorbed. The anode experiences a force $F = n \times 10^{-4} \ N$ due to the impact of the electrons. The value of $n$ is. . . . .
Mass of the electron $m_e = 9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$ and $1.0 \ eV = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ J$.

The cathode of a photocell is changed such that the work function changes from $w_1$ to $w_2$ $(w_2 > w_1)$. If the saturation currents before and after the change are $I_1$ and $I_2$ respectively,and all other conditions (such as incident light intensity and frequency) remain unchanged,then (assuming $h\nu > w_2$):

View SolutionGiven below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A :$ In photoelectric effect,on increasing the intensity of incident light,the stopping potential increases.
Reason $R :$ Increase in intensity of light increases the rate of photoelectrons emitted,provided the frequency of incident light is greater than threshold frequency.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:

$A$ source of variable potential difference is connected across a photoelectric cell, and the photoelectric current is plotted against the applied potential difference. The graph with the broken line represents the initial curve of current versus applied potential difference. If the frequency of the incident light is increased and its intensity is reduced, which curve now represents the situation?
