The stopping potential applied between a photocathode and respective anode is such that the fastest electron can fly only one half of the distance L between cathode and anode. For the same stopping potential, the distance between cathode and anode is reduced to L/2. The fastest electron can:

1.  reach the anode

2.  fly a distance greater than L/4

3.  fly a distance less than L/4

4.  fly a distance L/4
