Consider a beam of electrons (each electron with energy \(E_0\)) incident on a metal surface kept in an evacuated chamber. Then:

1. no electrons will be emitted as only photons can emit electrons.
2. electrons can be emitted but all with energy, \(E_0\).
3. electrons can be emitted with any energy, with a maximum of \(\mathrm{E}_0-\phi\) (\(\phi\) is the work function).
4. electrons can be emitted with any energy, with a maximum \(E_0\).

1. \(1~\text{V}\)
2. \(2~\text{V}\)
3. \(3~\text{V}\)
4. \(5~\text{V}\)

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
