Ultraviolet light of wavelength $300 \ nm$ and intensity $1.0 \ W/m^2$ is incident on the surface of a photosensitive material. If $1\%$ of the incident photons produce photoelectrons,the number of photoelectrons emitted from an area of $1.0 \ cm^2$ of the surface is:

The figure represents a graph of the maximum kinetic energy $(K)$ of photoelectrons (in $eV$) versus the frequency $(\nu)$ of incident radiation for a metal used as a cathode in a photoelectric experiment. The work function of the metal is ............. $eV$.

When radiation of the wavelength $\lambda$ is incident on a metallic surface,the stopping potential is $4.8 \ V$. If the same surface is illuminated with radiation of double the wavelength,then the stopping potential becomes $1.6 \ V$. Then,the threshold wavelength for the surface is :

Photoelectrons are emitted from a photosensitive surface for light of wavelengths $\lambda_{1} = 360 \ nm$ and $\lambda_{2} = 600 \ nm$. What is the ratio of the work functions for the lights of wavelengths $\lambda_{1}$ and $\lambda_{2}$?

When light of wavelength $300 \ nm$ falls on a photoelectric emitter,photoelectrons are just liberated. For another emitter,light of wavelength $600 \ nm$ is just sufficient for liberating photoelectrons. The ratio of the work function of the two emitters is
