When light of wavelength $300 \ nm$ falls on a photoelectric emitter,photoelectrons are just liberated. For another emitter,light of wavelength $600 \ nm$ is just sufficient for liberating photoelectrons. The ratio of the work function of the two emitters is

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

Photoelectric emission is observed from a metallic surface for frequencies $v_1$ and $v_2$ of the incident light rays $(v_1 > v_2)$. If the maximum values of kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted in the two cases are in the ratio of $1:k$,then the threshold frequency of the metallic surface is

$A$ light wave described by $E = 60 \sin(3 \times 10^{15} t) + \sin(12 \times 10^{15} t)$ (in $SI$ units) falls on a metal surface of work function $2.8 \text{ eV}$. The maximum kinetic energy of the ejected photoelectron is (approximately) . . . . . . $\text{eV}$.

When a certain metal surface is illuminated with light of wavelength $\lambda$,the stopping potential is $V$. When the same surface is illuminated by light of wavelength $2\lambda$,the stopping potential is $\frac{V}{3}$. The threshold wavelength for the surface is:

The surface of a metal is first illuminated with a light of wavelength $300 \ nm$ and later illuminated by another light of wavelength $500 \ nm$. It is observed that the ratio of maximum velocities of photoelectrons in the two cases is $3$. The work function of the metal is close to: (in $eV$)
