In a photoemissive cell with exciting wavelength $\lambda$,the fastest electron has speed $v$. If the exciting wavelength is changed to $\frac{3\lambda}{4}$,the speed of the fastest emitted electron will be

When a photon of energy $4.25\, eV$ strikes the surface of a metal $A$,the ejected photoelectrons have a maximum kinetic energy $T_A\, eV$ and de-Broglie wavelength ${\lambda _A}$. The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons liberated from another metal $B$ by a photon of energy $4.70\, eV$ is ${T_B} = ({T_A} - 1.50)\, eV$. If the de-Broglie wavelength of these photoelectrons is ${\lambda _B} = 2{\lambda _A}$,then:

In a photoelectric experiment,ultraviolet light of wavelength $280 \, nm$ is used with a lithium cathode having a work function $\phi = 2.5 \, eV$. If the wavelength of incident light is switched to $400 \, nm$,find out the change in the stopping potential (in $V$).
