The threshold frequency of sodium for the photoelectric effect corresponds to yellow light. What happens when the bright yellow light is shone on the sodium metal?

1.  No electrons are released from the metal.

2.  The kinetic energy of the electrons increases.

3.  The number of electrons ejected increases.

4.  The threshold frequency of sodium metal increases.

If the work function of a metal is $6.622 \times {10}^{-20} J$ and a ray of electromagnetic radiation with a frequency of $1.0 \times {10}^{14} Hz$ is incident on the metal, what will be the speed of the electrons ejected from the metal?$( Note:h = 6.626 \times {10}^{-34} J-s \mathrm{and} m_e -=9.1 \times {10}^{-31} kg)$

1.  $2.62 \times {10}^{-6} \frac{m}{s}$

2.  $1.07 \times {10}^{-4} \frac{m}{s}$

3.  $9.38 \times {10}^3 \frac{m}{s}$

4.  $3.81 \times {10}^5 \frac{m}{s}$

All of the following statements about the photoelectric effect are true Except:

1. the intensity Of the light beam does not affect the photocurrent.

2. the kinetic energies of the emitted electrons do not depend on the light intensity.

3. a weak beam Of light Of frequency greater than the threshold frequency yields more current than an intense beam of light of frequency lower than the threshold frequency.

4. for the light of a given frequency, the kinetic energy of emitted electrons increases as the value of the work function decreases.

Let $n_r and n_b$ be respectively the number of photons emitted by a red bulb and a blue bulb of equal power in a given time.

1. $n_r=n_b$

2. $n_r<n_b$

3. $n_r>n_b$

4. data insufficient

When a photon of light collides with a metal surface, the number of electrons, (if any) coming out is:

1. only one

2. only two

3. infinite

4. depends upon factors

A point source of light is used in the photoelectric effect. If the source is removed farther from the emitting metal, the stopping potential:

1. will increase

2. will decrease

3. will remain constant

4. will either increase or decrease
