An electromagnetic wave of wavelength $\lambda$ is incident on a photosensitive surface of negligible work function. If the photoelectron emitted from the surface has mass $m$ and de-Broglie wavelength $\lambda_{d}$,then

In the photoelectric effect, an electromagnetic wave is incident on a metal surface and electrons are ejected from the surface. If the work function of the metal is $2.14 \text{ eV}$ and the stopping potential is $2 \text{ V}$, what is the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave (in $\text{ nm}$)? (Given $hc = 1242 \text{ eV nm}$, where $h$ is Planck's constant and $c$ is the speed of light in vacuum.)

The photoelectric work function for a metal surface is $4.125 \ eV$. The cut-off wavelength for this surface is .......... $\mathring{A}$.

When radiations of wavelength $\lambda$ are incident on a metallic surface,the stopping potential required is $4.8 \ V$. If the same surface is illuminated with radiations of double the wavelength,the required stopping potential becomes $1.6 \ V$. The value of the threshold wavelength for the surface is:
