  • A
    $3\,h\nu_0$
  • B
    $2\,h\nu_0$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{2}\,h\nu_0$
  • D

Two identical photo-cathodes receive light of frequencies $f_1$ and $f_2$. If the velocities of the photoelectrons (of mass $m$) coming out are respectively $v_1$ and $v_2$,then:

$A$ metal surface is illuminated by light of two different wavelengths $248 \ nm$ and $310 \ nm$. The maximum speeds of the photoelectrons corresponding to these wavelengths are $u_1$ and $u_2$,respectively. If the ratio $u_1: u_2 = 2: 1$ and $hc = 1240 \ eV \ nm$,the work function of the metal is nearly: (in $eV$)

In an experiment on the photoelectric effect,the slope of the cut-off voltage versus frequency of incident light is found to be $4.12 \times 10^{-15} \; V \cdot s$. Calculate the value of Planck's constant.

By the photoelectric effect,Einstein proved:

Light of wavelength $\lambda$ strikes a photoelectric surface and electrons are ejected with kinetic energy $K$. If $K$ is to be increased to twice its original value,the wavelength must be changed to $\lambda'$ such that :-
