Assertion: If the speed of a charged particle increases,both the mass and the charge increase.
Reason: If $m_0$ is the rest mass and $m$ is the mass at velocity $v$,then $m = \frac{m_0}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2}}}$,where $c$ is the speed of light.

Find the number of photons emitted per second by a $25 \text{ W}$ source of monochromatic light of wavelength $6600 \text{ Å}$. What is the photoelectric current assuming $3 \%$ efficiency for the photoelectric effect?

The anode voltage of a photocell is kept fixed. The wavelength $\lambda$ of the light falling on the cathode is gradually changed. The plate current $I$ of the photocell varies as follows:

Two parallel discs are connected by a rigid rod of length $L=0.5 \,m$ centrally. Each disc has a slit oppositely placed as shown in the figure. $A$ beam of neutral atoms is incident on one of the discs axially at different velocities $v$,while the system is rotated at an angular speed of $600 \,rev/s$,so that atoms only with a specific velocity emerge at the other end. Calculate the two largest speeds (in $m/s$) of the atoms that will emerge at the other end.
