A source of light is placed at a distance of \(50\) cm from a photocell and the stopping potential is found to be \(V_0\). If the distance between the light source and photocell is made \(25\) cm, the new stopping potential will be: 
1. \(V_0 /2\) 2. \(V_0 \)
3. \(4V_0 \) 4. \(2V_0 \)

A photocell employs a photo-electric effect to convert:

1. change in the frequency of light into a change in electric voltage.
2. change in the intensity of illumination into a change in photoelectric current.
3. change in the intensity of illumination into a change in the work function of the photocathode.
4. change in the frequency of light into a change in the electric current.
