In a photoelectric effect experiment,three different metal plates $p, q,$ and $r$ have work functions $\phi_p = 2.0 \ eV, \phi_q = 2.5 \ eV,$ and $\phi_r = 3.0 \ eV$. The incident light beams have wavelengths $\lambda_p = 550 \ nm, \lambda_q = 450 \ nm,$ and $\lambda_r = 350 \ nm$. The intensity of light is the same for each plate. The correct $I-V$ graph for the experiment is: $[hc = 1240 \ eV \ nm]$

The anode voltage of a photocell is kept fixed. The wavelength $\lambda$ of the light falling on the cathode is gradually changed. The plate current $I$ of the photocell varies as follows:

$A$ radiation of $3.8 eV$ falls on a metal surface to produce photoelectrons. These electrons are made to enter a magnetic field of $2 \times 10^{-4} T$. If the radius of the largest circular path followed by these electrons is $30 mm$,then the work function of the metal is (Mass of electron $m_{e} = 9 \times 10^{-31} kg$) (in $eV$)
