The threshold frequency of a metal is $F_0$. When light of frequency $2F_0$ is incident on the metal plate,the maximum velocity of the photoelectrons is $V_1$. When the frequency of incident radiation is increased to $5F_0$,the maximum velocity of the photoelectrons emitted is $V_2$. The ratio of $V_1$ to $V_2$ is:

  • A
    $1:8$
  • B
    $1:16$
  • C
    $1:4$
  • D
    $1:2$

When electromagnetic radiation is incident on a metallic surface,the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons depends on .......

In a photoelectric experiment,a graph is drawn with stopping potential along $Y$-axis and the frequency of the incident light along $X$-axis. If the graph is a straight line which makes an angle $\theta$ with $Y$-axis,then $\tan \theta=$ ($h$-Planck's constant,$e$-charge of electron).

When a metal surface is illuminated by light of wavelengths $400\; nm$ and $250\; nm$,the maximum velocities of the photoelectrons ejected are $v$ and $2v$ respectively. The work function of the metal is ($h =$ Planck's constant,$c =$ velocity of light in air).
