$A$ monochromatic point source of light is placed at a distance $d$ from a metal surface. Photoelectrons are ejected at a rate $n$ per second,and with maximum kinetic energy $E$. If the source is brought nearer to a distance $d / 2$,the rate and the maximum kinetic energy per photoelectron become nearly

$A$ photon of energy $8 eV$ is incident on a metal surface of threshold frequency $1.6 \times 10^{15} Hz$. The maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is ............... $eV$ (Given $h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} Js$).

When a photon of energy $4.0 \; eV$ strikes the surface of a metal $A$,the ejected photoelectrons have maximum kinetic energy $T_{A} \; eV$ and de-Broglie wavelength $\lambda_{A}$. The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons liberated from another metal $B$ by a photon of energy $4.50 \; eV$ is $T_{B} = (T_{A} - 1.5) \; eV$. If the de-Broglie wavelength of these photoelectrons is $\lambda_{B} = 2 \lambda_{A}$,then the work function of metal $B$ is ............. $eV$.

The work functions for sodium and copper are $2 \ eV$ and $4 \ eV$, respectively. Which of them is suitable for a photocell using $4000 \ \mathring{A}$ light?
