The anode voltage of photocellis kept fixed. The wavelength `lambda` of the light falling on the cathode is gradually changed. The plate current `I` of the photocell varies as follows:

The anode vollage of a photocell is kept fixed . The wavelength lambda of the light falling on the cathode varies as follows

Find the thickness of a plate which will produce a change in opticle path equal to half the wavelength lambda of the light passing through it normally. The refractive index of the plate is mu .

The stopping potential in a photoelectric experiment is linearly related to the inverse of the wavelength (1/lambda) of the light falling on the cathode. The potential difference applied across an X-ray tube is linearly related to the inverse of the cutoff wavelength (1/lambda) of the X-ray emitted. Show that the slopes of the lines in the two cases are equal and find its value.

In the experimental setup for a photocell, the wavelength of the light incident on the cathod is initially 0.6 times the threshold wavelength for the material of the cathode. Certain change in the experimental setup are given in column A and their possibel effects are given in column B. {:("Column A","Column B"),((i)"The intensity of the incident light is doubled but the frequency remains unaltered",(a)"Photocurrent remains the same"),((ii)"Both the intensity and wavelength of the incident light are doubled",(b)"Photcurrent falls to zero"),((iii)"The intensity of the incident light is doubled and its wavelength is made half",(c)"Stopping potential increase"),((iv)"The intensity of the incident light ramains the same and the wavelength is made half",(d) "Photocurrent increases"):}

A vacuum photocell consists of a central cathode and an anode. The internal surface is silver of work function 4.5 eV. The contact potential difference between the electrodes equals to 0.6 V.
