A photoelectric surface is illuminated successively by monochromatic light of wavelengths \(\lambda\) and \(\frac{\lambda}{2}\). If the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons in the second case is \(3\) times that in the first case, the work function of the surface of the material will be:
(\(h\) = Planck’s constant, \(c\) = speed of light)
1. \(\frac{hc}{2\lambda}\)
2. \(\frac{hc}{\lambda}\)
3. \(\frac{2hc}{\lambda}\)
4. \(\frac{hc}{3\lambda}\)

What will be the percentage change in the de-Broglie wavelength of the particle if the kinetic energy of the particle is increased to \(16\) times its previous value?
1. \(25\)
2. \(75\)
3. \(60\)
4. \(50\)

For photoelectric emission from certain metal, the cut-off frequency is $\nu$. If radiation of frequency 2$\nu$ impinges on the metal plate, the maximum possible velocity of the emitted electron will be (m is the electron mass)

1. $\sqrt{h\nu /\left(2m\right) }$

2. $\sqrt{h\nu /\left(m\right) }$

3. $\sqrt{2h\nu /\left(m\right) }$

4. none of these

A 200W sodium street lamp emits yellow light of wavelength $0.6 \mu m.$ Assuming it to be 25% efficient in converting electrical energy to light, the number of photons of yellow light it emits per second is 

(1) $1.5\times {10}^{20}$                               

(2) $6\times {10}^{18}$

(3) $62\times {10}^{20}$                                 

(4) $3\times {10}^{19}$

Monochromatic radiation emitted when electron on hydrogen atom jumps from first excited to the ground state irradiates a photosensitive material. The stopping potential is measured to be 3.57 V.The threshold frequency of the material is:

(1)$4\times {10}^{15}Hz$                               

(2)$5\times {10}^{15}Hz$

(3)$1.6\times {10}^{15}Hz$                           

(4)$2.5\times {10}^{15}Hz$

In the Davisson and Germer experiment, the velocity of electrons emitted from the electron gun can be increased by

1. increasing the filament current

2. decreasing the filament current

3. decreasing the potential difference between the anode and filament

4. increasing the potential difference  between the anode and filament

A radioactive nucleus of mass M emits a photon

energy will be:

(1) ${\mathrm{h}}^2{\mathrm{\nu }}^2/2 {\mathrm{Mc}}^2$

(2) zero

(3) h$\nu$

(4) ${\mathrm{Mc}}^2-\mathrm{h\nu }$
