The threshold wavelength for photoelectric emission from a metal surface is $5200 \ \mathring A$. Which of the following sources will cause photoelectric emission from this surface?

The threshold frequency of cesium is $5.16 \times 10^{14} \ Hz$. Then its work function is . . . . . . $eV$.

$A$ beam of electromagnetic radiation of intensity $6.4 \times 10^{-5} \; W/cm^{2}$ is comprised of wavelength $\lambda = 310 \; nm$. It falls normally on a metal surface (work function $\varphi = 2 \; eV$) of surface area $1 \; cm^{2}$. If one in $10^{3}$ photons ejects an electron, the total number of electrons ejected in $1 \; s$ is $10^{x}$. Then $x$ is: $(hc = 1240 \; eV \cdot nm, 1 \; eV = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \; J)$
