The photoelectric work function for a metal surface is $4.125 \ eV$. The cut-off wavelength for this surface is .......... $\mathring{A}$.

When a metallic surface is illuminated by light of wavelength $\lambda$,the stopping potential for the photoelectric current is $3 \text{ V}$. When the same surface is illuminated by light of wavelength $2 \lambda$,the stopping potential is $1 \text{ V}$. The threshold wavelength for this surface is:

$A$ stream of photons having energy $3 \,eV$ each impinges on a potassium surface. The work function of potassium is $2.3 \,eV$. The emerging photo-electrons are slowed down by a copper plate placed $5 \,mm$ away. If the potential difference between the two metal plates is $1 \,V$,the maximum distance the electrons can move away from the potassium surface before being turned back is .......... $mm$.

Electrons ejected from the surface of a metal,when light of a certain frequency is incident on it,are stopped fully by a retarding potential of $3 \ V$. The photoelectric effect on this metallic surface begins at a frequency of $6 \times 10^{14} \ s^{-1}$. The frequency of the incident light in $s^{-1}$ is: [Planck's constant $= 6.4 \times 10^{-34} \ J \cdot s$,charge on the electron $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$]

Photoelectric emission is observed from a metallic surface for frequencies $\nu_1$ and $\nu_2$ of the incident light rays $(\nu_1 > \nu_2)$. If the ratio of the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted in the first case to that in the second case is $3 : K$, then the threshold frequency of the metallic surface is:
