Light of incident frequency $3$ times the threshold frequency is incident on a photosensitive material. If the incident frequency is made $\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{\text{th}}$ and intensity is tripled,then the photoelectric current will

When a metallic surface is illuminated with monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$,the stopping potential is $5V_0$. When the same surface is illuminated with light of wavelength $3\lambda$,the stopping potential is $V_0$. Then the work function of the metallic surface is:

If the stopping potential of photoelectrons emitted by a source placed at a distance of $0.2 \ m$ from a photocell is $0.6 \ V$,then the stopping potential of photoelectrons emitted by the same source placed at a distance of $0.6 \ m$ from the photocell will be .......... $V$.

According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the graph between the kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons and the frequency of incident radiation is:

Statement $1$: $A$ metal surface is irradiated by monochromatic light of frequency $v > v_0$. The maximum kinetic energy and stopping potential are $K_{max}$ and $V_0$ respectively. If the frequency of the incident light is doubled, then $K_{max}$ and $V_0$ will also be doubled. Statement $2$: The stopping potential and maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from a surface depend linearly on the frequency of the incident light.
