In a photoelectric experimental setup ultraviolet light of wavelength 350 nm is incident on emitter plate (E). The work function of the emitter plate is ϕ=2.2eV.AB is a uniform wire resistor having length L=100 cm. Resistance of the wire AB is 10Ω and the emf of the battery is V=10 volt. The sliding contact J can be moved along the wire AB. When the sliding contact is placed at end B of the wire resistor the micro-ammeter shows a reading of i=6μA. Assume that photoelectric current is very small compared to the current through the cell. Find the reading of the ammeter (in μA ) when the slider is moved to end A of the wire.

A photo-sensitive plate ϕ=1.2eV is placed at 200 cm from a point source of light ofλ=4.8×10-7 m and a power output of 1.0 W. The light falls nearly normally to the plate.The approximate number of photons reaching the plate per square metre per second is n×1016. Find n, assuming the photon efficiency of plate to be 0.05%.Use : Area of plate =0.25 m2.
