The figure shows the variation of photocurrent with anode potential for four different radiations. Let $f_a$,$f_b$,$f_c$ and $f_d$ be the frequencies for the curves $a$,$b$,$c$ and $d$ respectively.

  • A
    $f_a > f_b > f_c > f_d$
  • B
    $f_a < f_b < f_c < f_d$
  • C
    $f_a > f_b < f_c = f_d$
  • D
    $f_a = f_b > f_c > f_d$

When radiation of wavelength $\lambda$ is incident on a metallic surface,the stopping potential is $4.8 \ V$. If the same surface is illuminated with radiation of double the wavelength,then the stopping potential becomes $1.6 \ V$. Then the threshold wavelength for the surface is

Electrons ejected from the surface of a metal,when light of a certain frequency is incident on it,are stopped fully by a retarding potential of $3 \ V$. The photoelectric effect on this metallic surface begins at a frequency of $6 \times 10^{14} \ s^{-1}$. The frequency of the incident light in $s^{-1}$ is: [Planck's constant $= 6.4 \times 10^{-34} \ J \cdot s$,charge on the electron $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$]
