When a point source of light is at a distance of $50 \, cm$ from a photoelectric cell,the cut-off voltage is found to be $V_0$. If the same source is placed at a distance of $1 \, m$ from the cell,then the cut-off voltage will be

  • A
    $V_0 / 4$
  • B
    $V_0 / 2$
  • C
    $V_0$
  • D
    $2 V_0$

$A$ photosensitive surface made of cesium on tungsten is irradiated by monochromatic radiation of wavelength $640.2 \ nm$ $(1 \ nm = 10^{-9} \ m)$ from a neon bulb. The measured stopping potential is $0.54 \ V$. If the source is replaced by another source and the same photocell is irradiated by a line of $427.2 \ nm$,what will be the new stopping potential in $V$?
