When a monochromatic point source of light is placed at $0.1\, m$ from a photocell,the cut-off voltage and saturation current are $0.8\, V$ and $24\, mA$ respectively. If the same source is placed at $0.2\, m$ away from the photocell,then the cut-off voltage and saturation current will be:

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:
