At the stopping potential

Stopping potential for photo electrons

When a certain metallic surface is illuminated with monochromatic light of wavelength lambda , the stopping potential for photo electric current is 6 v_(0) . When the same surface si illuminated with light of wavelength 2 lambda , the stopping potential is 2v_(0) . The threshold wavelength of this surface for photoelectric effect is -

When monochromatic light of wavelength lambda illuminates a metal surfrce, then stopping potential for photo electric current is 3V_(0) . If wavelength changes to 2lambda then stopping potential becomes V_(0) Threshold wavelength for photo electric emission is:

When a piece of metal is illuminated by monochromatic light of wavelength lambda then the stopping potential for photoelectric current is 2.5 V_0 . When the same surface is illuminated by light of wavelength 1.5 lambda , then the stopping potential becomes V_0 . Find the value of threshold wavelength for photoelctric emission.

Light of frequency 1.5 times the threshold frequency is incident on a photo-sensitive material. If the frequency is halved and the intensity is doubled, the photoelectric current becomes

In a photoelectric experiment, if stopping potential is applied, then photocurrent becomes zero. This means that:

State how in a photo-cell, the work function of the metal influence the kinetic energy of the emitted electrons. (a) If the intensity of the incident radiation is doubled, what change occur in (i) the stopping potential and (ii) in photoelectric current? (b) If the frequency of the incident radiation is doubled, what changes occur in the (i) stopping potential and (ii) photoelectric current.

Does the stopping potential in photoelectric emission depend upon the intensity of the incident radiation in a photo cell? Comment on it.
