In the photoelectric effect, the kinetic energy of the electron emitted from the metal surface depends upon:

  • A
    intensity of incident light
  • B
    both intensity and velocity of incident light
  • C
    frequency of incident light
  • D
    velocity of incident light

Two identical capacitors are arranged as shown. The work function of plate $1$ is $\phi \ eV$. The $emf$ of the battery is $\frac{\phi}{e}$. If the energy of the incident photon is $hv$,then what is the maximum kinetic energy of the $e^-$ reaching plate $2$?

$A$ metallic surface is illuminated with radiation of wavelength $\lambda$,the stopping potential is $V_0$. If the same surface is illuminated with radiation of wavelength $2 \lambda$,the stopping potential becomes $\frac{V_0}{4}$. The threshold wavelength for this metallic surface will be -

In the photoelectric effect, the stopping potential depends on:

$A$ beam of light of wavelength $400\,nm$ and power $1.55\,mW$ is directed at the cathode of a photoelectric cell. If only $10\%$ of the incident photons effectively produce photoelectrons,then find the current due to these electrons in $\mu A$. (Given: $hc = 1240\,eV\cdot nm$,$e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\,C$)
