Photons of wavelength $\lambda$ emitted by a source of power $P$ are incident on a photocell. If the current produced in the cell is $I$,then the percentage of incident photons which produce current in the photocell is: (where $h$ is Planck's constant and $c$ is the speed of light in vacuum)

When a metal is irradiated by light having wavelength $\lambda$ $(\lambda < \lambda_0)$,all the photoelectrons emitted are bent in a circle of radius $r$ by a magnetic field of flux density $B_0$. Find $\frac{1}{\lambda_0}$,where $\lambda_0$ is the threshold wavelength.

Light of incident frequency $3$ times the threshold frequency is incident on a photosensitive material. If the incident frequency is made $\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{\text{th}}$ and intensity is tripled,then the photoelectric current will

In a photoelectric experiment, the slope of the graph drawn between stopping potential $(V_s)$ along the $y$-axis and the frequency $(\nu)$ of incident radiation along the $x$-axis is (Planck's constant $h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \text{ Js}$)

When a light of wavelength '$\lambda$' falls on the emitter of a photosensitive surface, the maximum speed of emitted photoelectrons is '$V$'. If the incident wavelength is changed to '$2\lambda/3$',the maximum speed of emitted photoelectrons will be
