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:

  • A
    $\frac{v}{6}$
  • B
    $\frac{v}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{2v}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{4v}{3}$

In a photoelectric experiment,a monochromatic light is incident on the emitter plate $E$,as shown in the figure. When switch $S_1$ is closed and switch $S_2$ is open,the photoelectrons strike the collector plate $C$ with a maximum kinetic energy of $1 eV$. If switch $S_1$ is open and switch $S_2$ is closed and the frequency of the incident light is doubled,the photoelectrons strike the collector plate with a maximum kinetic energy of $20 eV$. The threshold wavelength of the emitter plate is (in $Å$)

When monochromatic light is incident on a photosensitive surface,the number of photoelectrons emitted per second from the surface is $n$ and the maximum kinetic energy is $K_{max}$. If the intensity of the incident light is doubled,then...

If the stopping potential of photoelectrons emitted by a source placed at a distance of $0.2 \ m$ from a photocell is $0.6 \ V$,then the stopping potential of photoelectrons emitted by the same source placed at a distance of $0.6 \ m$ from the photocell will be .......... $V$.

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:
