Photoelectrons are emitted from two similar metal plates when wavelengths $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ are incident on them $(\lambda_1 = 1.5\lambda_2)$. If the maximum kinetic energies of the emitted photoelectrons are $E_1$ and $E_2$ respectively, then:

When a metallic surface is illuminated with a radiation of wavelength $\lambda$, the stopping potential is $V$. If the same surface is illuminated with radiation of wavelength $6\lambda$, the stopping potential is $V/12$. The threshold wavelength for the surface is

The maximum velocity of an electron emitted by light of wavelength $\lambda$ incident on the surface of a metal of work function $\phi$ is (Where $h =$ Planck's constant,$m =$ mass of electron,and $c =$ speed of light).

When light of frequency $v_{1}$ is incident on a metal with work function $W$ (where $h v_{1} > W$), then the photocurrent falls to zero at a stopping potential of $V_{1}$. If the frequency of light is increased to $v_{2}$, the stopping potential changes to $V_{2}$. Therefore, the charge of an electron $e$ is given by:

In the graph of maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from a metal surface versus the frequency of incident radiation based on Einstein's photoelectric equation,the slope is .......
