When a photon of energy $4.25\, eV$ strikes the surface of a metal $A$,the ejected photoelectrons have a maximum kinetic energy $T_A\, eV$ and de-Broglie wavelength ${\lambda _A}$. The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons liberated from another metal $B$ by a photon of energy $4.70\, eV$ is ${T_B} = ({T_A} - 1.50)\, eV$. If the de-Broglie wavelength of these photoelectrons is ${\lambda _B} = 2{\lambda _A}$,then:

Light of frequency $8 \times 10^{15} \ Hz$ is incident on a substance of photoelectric work function $6.125 \ eV$. The maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is ........... $eV$.

$A$ mercury lamp is a convenient source for studying the frequency dependence of photoelectric emission,as it provides a number of spectral lines ranging from the $UV$ to the red end of the visible spectrum. In our experiment with a rubidium photocell,the following lines from a mercury source were used:
$\lambda_1 = 3650 \,\mathring{A}, \lambda_2 = 4047 \,\mathring{A}, \lambda_3 = 4358 \,\mathring{A}, \lambda_4 = 5461 \,\mathring{A}, \lambda_5 = 6907 \,\mathring{A}$
The stopping voltages,respectively,were measured to be:
$V_{01} = 1.28 \,V, V_{02} = 0.95 \,V, V_{03} = 0.74 \,V, V_{04} = 0.16 \,V, V_{05} = 0 \,V$
Determine the value of Planck's constant $h$,the threshold frequency,and the work function for the material.

Photoelectric emission takes place from a certain metal at threshold frequency $\nu$. If the radiation of frequency $2\nu$ is incident on the metal plate, the maximum velocity of the emitted photoelectron will be ($m = \text{mass of electron}$, $h = \text{Planck's constant}$)

$A$ photo-emissive substance is illuminated with a radiation of wavelength $\lambda_i$ so that it releases electrons with de-Broglie wavelength $\lambda_c$. The longest wavelength of radiation that can emit photoelectrons is $\lambda_0$. The expression for the de-Broglie wavelength is given by ($m$: mass of the electron,$h$: Planck's constant,and $c$: speed of light).
