  • A
    For a given frequency of incident radiation,the stopping potential varies linearly with its intensity.
  • B
    For a given frequency of incident radiation,the photocurrent is independent of its intensity.
  • C
    For a given frequency of incident radiation,the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is independent of its intensity.
  • D

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 $eV$)

The photoelectric threshold wavelength for a metal surface is $6600 \, \mathring{A}$. The work function for this is:

For a given surface,the slope of the graph between the frequency of incident light and the stopping potential is .......

$A$ photon of energy $E$ ejects a photoelectron from a metal surface whose work function is $W_0$. If this electron enters into a uniform magnetic field of induction $B$ in a direction perpendicular to the field and describes a circular path of radius $r$,then the radius $r$ is given by,(in the usual notation)

Light of incident frequency $3$ times the threshold frequency is incident on a photosensitive material. If the incident frequency is made $\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{\text{th}}$ and intensity is tripled,then the photoelectric current will
