Define the term "threshold freq uence", in the context of photolelectric emission.

State the factors which the emissive power of a body depends on.

The photoelectric emission from a surface starts only when the light incident upon the surface has certain minimum:

A photon of frequency v causes photo electric emission from a surface with threshold frequency v_(0) . The de-Broglies wavelength (lambda) of the photo electron emitted is given by:

Radiations of frequencies 8xx10^(15) Hz and 5xx10^(15) Hz are incident one after the another on the same photosensitive surface. If is found that the kinetic energies of the photo electrons emitted from the surface are in the ratio of 2:1 . What is the threshold frequency for the surface ?

Using Einstein's photoelectric equation show how the cut -off voltage and threshold frequency for a given photosenstive material can be determined with the help of a suitable plot/graph.
