The work functions for sodium and copper are $2 \ eV$ and $4 \ eV$, respectively. Which of them is suitable for a photocell using $4000 \ \mathring{A}$ light?

An electron in the hydrogen atom jumps from excited state $n$ to the ground state. The wavelength so emitted illuminates a photosensitive material having work function $2.75 \ eV$. If the stopping potential of the photoelectron is $10 \ V$,then the value of $n$ is

$A$ metal plate of area $1 \times 10^{-4} \, m^2$ is illuminated by radiation of intensity $16 \, mW/m^2$. The work function of the metal is $5 \, eV$. The energy of the incident photons is $10 \, eV$ and only $10\%$ of the incident photons produce photoelectrons. The number of emitted photoelectrons per second and their maximum kinetic energy, respectively, will be: $[1 \, eV = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, J]$

The work function of a material is $4.0 \ eV$. The longest wavelength of light that can cause the emission of photoelectrons from this material is approximately ............ $nm$.

In a photoelectric experiment, the wavelength of the light incident on the metal is changed from $200 \, nm$ to $400 \, nm$. The decrease in the stopping potential is close to [Use $hc = 1240 \, eV \cdot nm$ where $h$ is Planck's constant and $c$ is the velocity of light]. (in $ \, V$)
