For photoelectric emission from certain metals, the cutoff frequency is \(\nu\). If radiation of frequency \(2\nu\) impinges on the metal plate, the maximum possible velocity of the emitted electron will be:
(\(m\) is the electron mass)

1. \(\sqrt{\frac{h\nu}{m}}\) 2. \(\sqrt{\frac{2h\nu}{m}}\)
3. \(2\sqrt{\frac{h\nu}{m}}\) 4. \(\sqrt{\frac{h\nu}{2m}}\)

When the light of frequency \(2\nu_0\) (where \(\nu_0\) is threshold frequency), is incident on a metal plate, the maximum velocity of electrons emitted is \(v_1\). When the frequency of the incident radiation is increased to \(5\nu_0,\) the maximum velocity of electrons emitted from the same plate is \(v_2.\) What will be the ratio of \(v_1\) to \(v_2\)?

An electron of mass m with an initial velocity \(\vec v= v_0\hat i\)\( ( v_o > 0 ) \) enters in an electric field \(\vec E = -E_0 \hat i\)\((E_0 = \text{constant}>0)\) at \(t=0\). If \(\lambda_0\)\(\lambda_0\), is its de-Broglie wavelength initially, then what will be its de-Broglie wavelength at time \(t\)?
1. \(\frac{\lambda_0}{\left(1+ \frac{eE_0}{mv_0}t\right)}\)

2. (i) > (iii) > (ii) > (iv)
3. (iv) > (iii) > (ii) > (i)

If in a photoelectric experiment, the wavelength of incident radiation is reduced from 6000 Å to 4000 Å, then:

1. The stopping potential will decrease.
2. The stopping potential will increase.
3. The kinetic energy of emitted electrons will decrease.
4. The value of the work function will decrease.

The stopping potential for photoelectrons:

1. does not depend on the frequency of the incident light.
2. does not depend upon the nature of the cathode material.
3. depends on both the frequency of the incident light and the nature of the cathode material.
4. depends upon the intensity of the incident light.
