Given below are two statements:
Statement-$I$: The figure shows the variation of stopping potential $(V_0)$ with frequency $(v)$ for two photosensitive materials $M_1$ and $M_2$. The slope gives the value of $\frac{h}{e}$,where $h$ is Planck's constant and $e$ is the charge of an electron.
Statement-$II$: $M_2$ will emit photoelectrons of greater kinetic energy for incident radiation having the same frequency.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

$A$ point source of light is used in a photoelectric effect. If the source is moved farther from the emitting metal, the stopping potential:

Given that a photon of light of wavelength $10,000\;\mathring A$ has an energy equal to $1.23\; eV$. When light of wavelength $5000\;\mathring A$ and intensity $I_0$ falls on a photoelectric cell,the saturation current is $0.40 \times 10^{-6}\; A$ and the stopping potential is $1.36\; V$; then the work function is ..... $eV$.
