$A$ convex lens of focal length $40 \ cm$ forms an image of an extended source of light on a photoelectric cell. $A$ current $I$ is produced. The lens is replaced by another convex lens having the same diameter but focal length $20 \ cm$. The photoelectric current now is:

  • A
    $\frac{I}{2}$
  • B
    $4 \ I$
  • C
    $2 \ I$
  • D
    $I$

The variation of photoelectric current with anode potential is shown below. Choose the correct option ($V_0$ = stopping potential).

What is the intensity of radiation (light)?

In a photoelectric experiment,a parallel beam of monochromatic light with power of $200 \ W$ is incident on a perfectly absorbing cathode of work function $6.25 \ eV$. The frequency of light is just above the threshold frequency so that the photoelectrons are emitted with negligible kinetic energy. Assume that the photoelectron emission efficiency is $100 \%$. $A$ potential difference of $500 \ V$ is applied between the cathode and the anode. All the emitted electrons are incident normally on the anode and are absorbed. The anode experiences a force $F = n \times 10^{-4} \ N$ due to the impact of the electrons. The value of $n$ is. . . . .
Mass of the electron $m_e = 9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$ and $1.0 \ eV = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ J$.

$A$ photocell is illuminated by a small bright source placed $d \; m$ away. When the same source of light is placed $\frac{d}{2} \; m$ away,the number of electrons emitted by the photocathode would
