When light of frequency twice the threshold frequency is incident on a metal plate,the maximum velocity of the emitted electron is $v_{1}$. When the frequency of incident radiation is increased to five times the threshold value,the maximum velocity of the emitted electron becomes $v_{2}$. If $v_{2} = x v_{1}$,the value of $x$ will be...........

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $4$
  • C
    $8$
  • D

In a photoelectric experiment,a monochromatic light is incident on the emitter plate $E$,as shown in the figure. When switch $S_1$ is closed and switch $S_2$ is open,the photoelectrons strike the collector plate $C$ with a maximum kinetic energy of $1 eV$. If switch $S_1$ is open and switch $S_2$ is closed and the frequency of the incident light is doubled,the photoelectrons strike the collector plate with a maximum kinetic energy of $20 eV$. The threshold wavelength of the emitter plate is (in $Å$)
