The radiation corresponding to the $3 \rightarrow 2$ transition of a hydrogen atom falls on a gold surface to generate photoelectrons. These electrons are passed through a magnetic field of $5 \times 10^{-4} \, T$. Assume that the radius of the largest circular path followed by these electrons is $7 \, mm$. The work function of the metal is $..... \, eV$. (Mass of electron $= 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \, kg$)

In a photoelectric effect experiment,three different metal plates $p, q,$ and $r$ have work functions $\phi_p = 2.0 \ eV, \phi_q = 2.5 \ eV,$ and $\phi_r = 3.0 \ eV$. The incident light beams have wavelengths $\lambda_p = 550 \ nm, \lambda_q = 450 \ nm,$ and $\lambda_r = 350 \ nm$. The intensity of light is the same for each plate. The correct $I-V$ graph for the experiment is: $[hc = 1240 \ eV \ nm]$
