$V$ (stopping potential) is plotted against $\frac{1}{\lambda}$,where $\lambda$ is the wavelength of incident radiation,for two metals.

  • A
    Metal $1$ may be gold and metal $2$ may be cesium.
  • B
    $\theta_1 > \theta_2$,if metal $1$ is gold and metal $2$ is cesium.
  • C
    $\theta_1 = \theta_2$,for any two metals.
  • D
    $\theta_1 > \theta_2$,if metal $1$ and metal $2$ are gold and copper respectively.

The work functions of three metals $A, B$ and $C$ are $W_A, W_B$ and $W_C$ respectively. They are in decreasing order $(W_A > W_B > W_C)$. The correct graph between the maximum kinetic energy $E_k$ of the emitted electron and the frequency $v$ of the incident radiation is:

$A$ photosensitive surface made of cesium on tungsten is irradiated by monochromatic radiation of wavelength $640.2 \ nm$ $(1 \ nm = 10^{-9} \ m)$ from a neon bulb. The measured stopping potential is $0.54 \ V$. If the source is replaced by another source and the same photocell is irradiated by a line of $427.2 \ nm$,what will be the new stopping potential in $V$?

$A$ metal has a work function of $2.5 eV$. If radiation of frequency $3.2 \times 10^{15} Hz$ is incident on this metal surface,then the maximum kinetic energy of the ejected photoelectrons is (Planck's constant,$h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} J-s$) (in $eV$)

When monochromatic light falls on a photo-sensitive metal,an electron is emitted with maximum velocity $1.6 \times 10^6 \ m/s$. Find the stopping potential.
