When a certain metallic surface is illuminated with monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$,the stopping potential for photoelectric current is $3V_0$. When the same surface is illuminated with light of wavelength $2\lambda$,the stopping potential is $V_0$. The threshold wavelength for this surface for the photoelectric effect is:

When a certain metal surface is illuminated with light of frequency $v$, the stopping potential for photoelectric current is $V_{0}$. When the same surface is illuminated by light of frequency $\frac{v}{2}$, the stopping potential is $\frac{V_{0}}{4}$. The threshold frequency for photoelectric emission is:
