From the following graph of photo-current against collector plate potential,for two different intensities of light $I_{1}$ and $I_{2}$,one can conclude:

When the distance of a light source from a photocell is $r_1$,the photoelectric current is $I_1$. If the distance is $r_2$,the photoelectric current becomes $I_2$. The ratio $(I_1 : I_2)$ is .....

$A$ convex lens of focal length $40 \ cm$ forms an image of an extended source of light on a photoelectric cell. $A$ current $I$ is produced. The lens is replaced by another convex lens having the same diameter but focal length $20 \ cm$. The photoelectric current now is:

The value of the stopping potential in the following diagram is ......... $V$.

Monochromatic light with a frequency well above the cutoff frequency is incident on the emitter in a photoelectric effect apparatus. The frequency of the light is then doubled while the intensity is kept constant. How does this affect the photoelectric current?
