When a certain metal surface is illuminated with light of frequency $v$,the stopping potential for photoelectric current is $V_{0}$. When the same surface is illuminated by light of frequency $\frac{v}{2}$,the stopping potential is $\frac{V_{0}}{4}$. The threshold frequency for photoelectric emission is:

  • A
    $\frac{v}{6}$
  • B
    $\frac{v}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{2v}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{4v}{3}$

$A$ Hydrogen-like atom has atomic number $Z$. Photons emitted in the electronic transitions from level $n=4$ to level $n=3$ in these atoms are used to perform a photoelectric effect experiment on a target metal. The maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons generated is $1.95 \ eV$. If the photoelectric threshold wavelength for the target metal is $310 \ nm$,the value of $Z$ is:

In the photoelectric effect, the stopping potential depends on:

When a certain metallic surface is illuminated with monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$,the stopping potential for photoelectric current is $6V_0$. When the same surface is illuminated with light of wavelength $2\lambda$,the stopping potential is $2V_0$. The threshold wavelength for the photoelectric effect for this surface is:

Light of incident frequency $2$ times the threshold frequency is incident on a photosensitive material. If the incident frequency is made $\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{\text{rd}}$ and intensity is doubled,then the photoelectric current will

Photoelectrons are emitted with maximum velocity $v$ when light of frequency $3f$ is incident on a photosensitive material of work function $2hf$. If the frequency of the incident light is $4.25f$,the maximum velocity of the emitted photoelectrons is ($h$ = Planck's constant).
