Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: Out of microwaves,infrared rays,and ultraviolet rays,ultraviolet rays are the most effective for the emission of electrons from a metallic surface.
Statement $II$: Above the threshold frequency,the maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons is inversely proportional to the frequency of the incident light.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Assertion: The specific charge of positive rays is not constant.
Reason: The mass of ions varies with speed.

The correct curve between the stopping potential $(V_s)$ and intensity of incident light $(I)$ is

In an experiment on the photoelectric effect,plates of three different metals $p, q,$ and $r$ are used,with work functions $\phi_p = 2.0\ eV$,$\phi_q = 2.5\ eV$,and $\phi_r = 3.0\ eV$,respectively. Three radiations of equal intensity with wavelengths $550\ nm, 450\ nm,$ and $350\ nm$ are incident on these plates. Which of the following $I \rightarrow V$ graphs is correct for the experimental results? $(hc = 1240\ eV\ nm)$

The radiation corresponding to $3 \rightarrow 2$ transition of a hydrogen atom falls on a metal surface to produce photoelectrons. These electrons are made to enter a magnetic field of $3 \times 10^{-4} \ T$. If the radius of the largest circular path followed by these electrons is $10.0 \ mm$,the work function of the metal is close to......$ eV$.
