When orange light falls on a photo sensitive surfaces the photo current begins to flow. The velocity of emitted electrons will be more when surface is hit by

When you subtract green light from the white light, you get yellow colour

If lamda_o and lamda be the threshold wavelength and wavelength of incident light , the velocity of photoelectron ejected from the metal surface is :

Assertion: Electrons are ejected from a certain metal when either blue or violet light strikes the metal surface. However only violet light cause electron ejection from a second metal. Reason: The electrons in the first metal requires less energy for ejection.

Photoelectric effect supports quantum nature of light because (a) there is a minimum frequency of light below which no photo electrons are emitted (b) the maximum kinetic energy of photo electrons depends only on the frequency of light and not on its intensity (c ) even when the metal surface is faintly illuminated, the photo electrons leave the surface immediately (d) electric charge of the photo electrons is quantised

When a surface 1 cm thick is illuminated with light of wavelength lambda , the stopping potential is V_(0) , but when the same surface is illuminated by light of wavelength 3lambda , the stopping potential is (V_(0))/(6) . Find the threshold wavelength for metallic surface.

Maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from a metal surface, when light of wavelength lambda is incident on it, is 1 eV. When a light of wavelength lambda/3 is incident on the surfaces, maximum kinetic energy becomes 4 times. The work function of the metal is
