The work function of a certain metal is $3.31 \times 10^{-19} \,J$. The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted by incident radiation of wavelength $5000 \text{ Å}$ is (Given: $h = 6.62 \times 10^{-34} \,J \cdot s$,$c = 3 \times 10^8 \,m/s$,$e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \,C$) (in $\text{ eV}$)

$A$ metal surface is illuminated by radiation of wavelength $4500 \; \mathring A$. The ejected photoelectron enters a constant magnetic field of $2 \; mT$ making an angle of $90^{\circ}$ with the magnetic field. If it starts revolving in a circular path of radius $2 \; mm$,the work function of the metal is approximately ............. $eV$.

If the frequency of incident radiation $(v)$ is increased,keeping other factors constant,the stopping potential ($v > v_0$,threshold frequency) will:

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

If light of wavelength $\lambda_1$ is allowed to fall on a metal,then the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted is $E_1$. If the wavelength of light changes to $\lambda_2$,then the kinetic energy of the electrons changes to $E_2$. Then the work function of the metal is:
