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 kinetic energies of the photoelectrons emitted in the two cases are in the ratio of $1:k$, then the threshold frequency of the metallic surface is:

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

When light of intensity $1 \ W/m^2$ and wavelength $5 \times 10^{-7} \ m$ is incident on a surface, it is completely absorbed. If $100$ photons emit one electron and the surface area is $1 \ cm^2$, what is the photoelectric current?
