The de Broglie wavelength of the most energetic photoelectrons emitted from a photosensitive metal of work function $\phi$,when light of frequency $\nu$ is incident on it,is $\lambda$. Then $\nu =$ (where $h$ is Planck's constant and $m$ is the mass of the electron).

When a photosensitive surface is irradiated by light of wavelength $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$,the maximum kinetic energies of the emitted photoelectrons are $E_1$ and $E_2$ respectively. The work function of the photosensitive surface is:

The photoelectric threshold wavelength of silver is $3250 \times 10^{-10} \, m$. The velocity of the electron ejected from a silver surface by ultraviolet light of wavelength $2536 \times 10^{-10} \, m$ is (Given $h = 4.14 \times 10^{-15} \, eV \cdot s$ and $c = 3 \times 10^8 \, m/s$):

In a photoelectric experiment,the potential difference $V$ that must be maintained between the illuminated surface and the collector so as just to prevent any electron from reaching the collector is determined for different frequencies $f$ of the incident illumination. The graph obtained is shown. The maximum kinetic energy of the electrons emitted at frequency $f_1$ is

The difference between threshold wavelengths for two metal surfaces $A$ and $B$ having work functions $\phi_A = 9 \, eV$ and $\phi_B = 4.5 \, eV$ in $nm$ is: (Given,$hc = 1242 \, eV \, nm$)
