The study of photoelectric effect is useful in understanding

$A$ monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$ ejects photoelectrons from a metal surface with work function $\phi = 2.4 \text{ eV}$. These photoelectrons are made to collide with hydrogen atoms in the ground state. The maximum value of $\lambda$ for which the hydrogen atom may be ionized is [take $hc = 1240 \text{ eV-nm}$]. (in $\text{ nm}$)

In the case of the photoelectric effect, on increasing the frequency of incident light:

When a metal surface is illuminated by light of wavelength $\lambda$,the stopping potential is $8 \ V$. When the same surface is illuminated by light of wavelength $3 \lambda$,the stopping potential is $2 \ V$. The threshold wavelength for this surface is:

The work function of a metal is $2.1 \text{ eV}$. Which of the following wavelengths will be able to emit photoelectrons from its surface?

For the photoelectric effect,the maximum kinetic energy $(E_{k})$ of the photoelectrons is plotted against the frequency $(\nu)$ of the incident photons as shown in the figure. The slope of the graph gives:
