The work functions of three metals $A, B$ and $C$ are $W_A, W_B$ and $W_C$ respectively. They are in decreasing order $(W_A > W_B > W_C)$. The correct graph between the maximum kinetic energy $E_k$ of the emitted electron and the frequency $v$ of the incident radiation is:

Light from a hydrogen discharge tube is incident on the cathode of a photoelectric cell. The work function of the cathode surface is $4.2 \ eV$. In order to reduce the photo-current to zero,the voltage of the anode relative to the cathode must be made ........... $V$.

Photoelectric emission is observed from a metallic surface for frequencies $v_1$ and $v_2$ of the incident light $(v_1 > v_2)$. If the maximum values of kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted in the two cases are in the ratio $1: n$,then the threshold frequency of the metallic surface is
