A light of wavelength \(\lambda \) is incident on the metal surface and the ejected fastest electron has speed \(v.\) If the wavelength is changed to \(\frac{3\lambda}{4},\) then the speed of the fastest emitted electron will be:

1. smaller than \(\sqrt{\frac{4}{3}}v\)
2. greater than \(\sqrt{\frac{4}{3}}v\)
3. \(2v\)
4. zero

Light of wavelength \(3000 ~{\mathring{A}}\) in Photoelectric effect gives electron of maximum kinetic energy \(0.5 ~\text{eV}\). If the wavelength changes to \(2000 ~{\mathring{A}}\) then the maximum kinetic energy of emitted electrons will be:
1. less than \(0.5 ~\text{eV}\).
2. \(0.5 ~\text{eV}\).
3. greater than \(0.5 ~\text{eV}\).
4. the photoelectric effect does not occur.

A photosensitive metallic surface has a work function of \(h\nu_0\). If photons of energy \(2h\nu_0\) fall on this surface, the electrons come out with a maximum velocity of \(4\times10^{6}\) m/s. When the photon energy is increased to \(5h\nu_0\), then the maximum velocity of photoelectrons will be:
1. \(2\times 10^7~\text{m/s}\)
2. \(2\times 10^6~\text{m/s}\)
3. \(8\times 10^5~\text{m/s}\)
4. \(8\times 10^6~\text{m/s}\)
