When a point source of monochromatic light is at a distance of $0.2 \ m$ from a photoelectric cell,the cut-off voltage and the saturation current are $0.6 \ V$ and $18 \ mA$ respectively. If the same source is placed $0.6 \ m$ away from the photoelectric cell,then:

When a photon of energy $6 \ eV$ is incident on a metal surface with a work function of $4 \ eV$,the minimum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is ......... $eV$.

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: Stopping potential in photoelectric effect does not depend on the power of the light source.
