Light of energy $E$ falls normally on a metal of work function $\frac{E}{3}$. The kinetic energies $K$ of the photoelectrons are

  • A
    $K = \frac{2E}{3}$
  • B
    $K = \frac{E}{3}$
  • C
    $0 \leq K \leq \frac{2E}{3}$
  • D
    $0 \leq K \leq \frac{E}{3}$

Light comprising three wavelengths $310 \ nm$,$455 \ nm$,and $620 \ nm$ is incident on a surface separating two media at an angle of $45^o$. The refractive index for the $455 \ nm$ light is $\sqrt{2}$. If a metal plate with a work function of $1.2 \ eV$ is placed in the second medium,what is the maximum kinetic energy of the electrons emitted from the metallic plate in $eV$?

In a photoelectric effect experiment,the graph of stopping potential $V$ versus the reciprocal of wavelength $(1/\lambda)$ is shown in the figure. As the intensity of incident radiation is increased:
