Light of two different frequencies with photon energies of $1 \ eV$ and $2.5 \ eV$ are incident one after another on a metal surface having a work function of $0.5 \ eV$. The ratio of the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons will be:

In the experiment of the photoelectric effect, if the frequency of incident light is $v_1$, the maximum kinetic energy $(K.E.)$ of photoelectrons is $K_0$. If the frequency of light is $v_2$, the maximum $K.E.$ of photoelectrons is $2K_0$. Which of the following relations is correct?

An image of the sun is formed by a lens of focal length $30 \ cm$ on the metal surface of a photoelectric cell and a photoelectric current $I$ is produced. The lens forming the image is then replaced by another of the same diameter but of focal length $15 \ cm$. The photoelectric current in this case is

Light of wavelength $488 \;nm$ is produced by an argon laser which is used in the photoelectric effect. When light from this spectral line is incident on the emitter, the stopping (cut-off) potential of photoelectrons is $0.38 \;V$. Find the work function (in $eV$) of the material from which the emitter is made.

The threshold frequency of a metal with work function $6.63 \ eV$ is:
