For the photoelectric effect with incident photon wavelength $\lambda$,the stopping potential is $V_0$. Identify the correct variation$(s)$ of $V_0$ with $\lambda$ and $1/\lambda$.

If the electron in a hydrogen atom jumps from the third Bohr orbit to the ground state directly and the difference between the energies of the two states is radiated in the form of photons. If the work function of the material is $4.1 \text{ eV}$, then the stopping potential is nearly:
$\left[\text{Energy of electron in } n^{\text{th}} \text{ orbit} = \frac{-13.6}{n^2} \text{ eV}\right]$ (in $\text{ V}$)

When light of frequency $v$ is incident on a metal,photoelectrons are emitted. This is because...
