In a photoelectric effect experiment,the threshold wavelength of incident light is $380 \, nm$. If the wavelength of the incident light is $260 \, nm$,the maximum kinetic energy of emitted electrons will be: .............. $eV$. Given $E \text{ (in } eV) = \frac{1237}{\lambda \text{ (in } nm)}$.

When light of wavelength '$\lambda$' is incident on a photosensitive surface, the stopping potential is '$V$'. When a light of wavelength $1.5\lambda$ is incident on the same surface, the stopping potential is '$\frac{V}{4}$'. Threshold wavelength for the surface is

The stopping potential for a source of wavelength $4000\, \mathring{A}$,when kept at a distance of $10\, \text{cm}$,is $1.5\, \text{V}$. If now the distance of the source is increased to $20\, \text{cm}$,then the stopping potential will be ............... $\text{V}$.

An electron in a Hydrogen atom jumps from the second Bohr orbit to the ground state, and the difference between the energies of the two states is radiated in the form of a photon. This photon strikes a material. If the work function of the material is $4.2 \ eV$, then the stopping potential is (Energy of electron in $n$-th orbit $= -\frac{13.6}{n^2} \ eV$). (in $V$)
