An electron and a proton are separated by a large distance. The electron starts approaching the proton with an initial kinetic energy of $3 \, eV$. The proton captures the electron and forms a hydrogen atom in the second excited state. The resulting photon is incident on a photosensitive metal with a threshold wavelength of $4000 \, Å$. What is the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectron? (In $eV$)

Light of incident frequency $2$ times the threshold frequency is incident on a photosensitive material. If the incident frequency is made $\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{\text{rd}}$ and intensity is doubled,then the photoelectric current will

$A$ metal surface of work function $1.07 eV$ is irradiated with light of wavelength $332 nm$. The retarding potential required to stop the escape of photo-electrons is .............. $V$.

When radiation of wavelength $400 \ nm$ is incident on a metal surface,the kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is $1.68 \ eV$. The work function of the metal is .......... $eV$.

For photoelectric emission from a certain metal,the cutoff frequency is $\nu$. If radiation of frequency $2\nu$ impinges on the metal plate,the maximum possible velocity of the emitted electron will be ($m$ is the electron mass).
