When a metal surface is illuminated by light of wavelengths $400\; nm$ and $250\; nm$,the maximum velocities of the photoelectrons ejected are $v$ and $2v$ respectively. The work function of the metal is ($h =$ Planck's constant,$c =$ velocity of light in air).

When ultraviolet radiation of a certain frequency falls on a potassium target,the photoelectrons released can be stopped completely by a retarding potential of $0.6 \, V$. If the frequency of the radiation is increased by $10 \%$,this stopping potential rises to $0.9 \, V$. The work function of potassium is ........ $eV$.

When a certain metallic surface is illuminated with monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$,the stopping potential for photoelectric current is $3V_0$. When the same surface is illuminated with light of wavelength $2\lambda$,the stopping potential is $V_0$. The threshold wavelength for this surface for the photoelectric effect is:

$A$ and $B$ are two metals with threshold frequencies $1.8 \times 10^{14} \ Hz$ and $2.2 \times 10^{14} \ Hz$. Two identical photons of energy $0.825 \ eV$ each are incident on them. Then photoelectrons are emitted by (Take $h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \ J \cdot s$)

In a photoelectric experiment,the potential difference $V$ that must be maintained between the illuminated surface and the collector so as just to prevent any electron from reaching the collector is determined for different frequencies $f$ of the incident illumination. The graph obtained is shown. The maximum kinetic energy of the electrons emitted at frequency $f_1$ is
