An image of the sun is formed by a lens of focal length $30 \ cm$ on the metal surface of a photoelectric cell and a photoelectric current $I$ is produced. The lens forming the image is then replaced by another of the same diameter but of focal length $15 \ cm$. The photoelectric current in this case is

Light from a hydrogen discharge tube is incident on the cathode of a photoelectric cell. The work function of the cathode surface is $4.2 \ eV$. In order to reduce the photo-current to zero,the voltage of the anode relative to the cathode must be made ........... $V$.

The photoelectric cut-off voltage in a certain experiment is $1.5 \; V$. What is the maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted?

Light of wavelength $4000 \ \mathring A$ is incident on a photosensitive surface. If a potential of $-2 \ V$ is required to stop the emitted electrons,the work function of the material is: $(h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \ J \cdot s, e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C, c = 3 \times 10^8 \ m/s)$ (in $eV$)
