$A.$ The photocurrent is proportional to the intensity of the incident radiation.
$B.$ The maximum kinetic energy with which photoelectrons are emitted depends on the intensity of incident light.
$C.$ The maximum kinetic energy with which photoelectrons are emitted depends on the frequency of incident light.
$D.$ The emission of photoelectrons requires a minimum threshold intensity of incident radiation.
$E.$ The maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is independent of the frequency of the incident light.

Find the number of photons emitted per second from a source of light which results in a photocurrent with drift velocity of $1.5 \ m/s$ in a conductor with cross-section area $0.25 \ m^2$ and volume density of electrons $10^{20} \ m^{-3}$. (Assume that $60\%$ of photons emitted result in electron emission).

The de Broglie wavelength of a particle moving with a speed of $0.8 c$ is equal to the wavelength of a photon. If $c$ is the speed of light in vacuum, the ratio of the energy of the photon to the kinetic energy of the particle is:
