Photons with energy $5\, eV$ are incident on a cathode $C$ of a photoelectric cell. The maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is $2\, eV$. When photons of energy $6\, eV$ are incident on $C$,no photoelectrons will reach the anode $A$ if the stopping potential of $A$ relative to $C$ is .............. $V$.

The figure shows the plot of stopping potential $(V_0)$ versus $(1/\lambda)$ for three different metals. If $\phi$ is the work function,then which of the following is correct?

When light of frequency $v_{1}$ is incident on a metal with work function $W$ (where $h v_{1} > W$),then the photocurrent falls to zero at a stopping potential of $V_{1}$. If the frequency of light is increased to $v_{2}$,the stopping potential changes to $V_{2}$. Therefore,the charge of an electron $e$ is given by:

The work function of a metal is $6.825 \ eV$. Its threshold wavelength is approximately: (Given $c = 3 \times 10^8 \ m/s$)
