If the frequency of light in a photoelectric experiment is double then maximum kinetic energy of photoelectron

If the frequency of incident light in photoelectric experiment is doubled then does the stopping potential become double or more than double, justify ?

A light beam containing a number of wavelengths is used in an photoelectric experiment. The stopping potential :

The stopping potential for acertain photosensitive metal is Vq when the frequency of incident radiation is V_(0) When the frequency of the incident radiations is doubled, what will be the stopping potential ?

If the wavelength of light in an experiment on photoelectric effect is doubled, (i) the photoelectric emission will not take place (ii) the photoelectric emission may or may not take place (iii) the stopping potential will increase (iv) the stopping potential will decrease

Assertion: If frequency of incident light is doubled, the stopping potential will also become two times Reason: Stopping potential is given by V_0 = (h)/(e ) (v-v_0)

Of the following statement about the photoelectric effect, which are true and which are false? (a) The greater the frequency of the incident light is, the greater is the stopping potential. (b) The greater the intensity of the incident light is, the greater is the cutoff frequency. (c) The greater the work function of the target material is, the greater is the stopping potential. (d) The greater the work function of the target material is, the greater is the cutoff frequency. (e) The greater the frequency of the incident light is, the greater is the maximum kinetic energy of the ejected electrons. (f) The greater the energy of the photons is, the smaller is the stopping potential.
