Light of wavelength λph falls on a cathode plate inside a vacuum tube as shown in the figure. The work function of the cathode surface is ϕ and the anode is a wire mesh of conducting material kept at a distance d from the cathode. A potential difference V is maintained between the electrodes. If the minimum de Broglie wavelength of the electrons passing through the anode is λe, which of the following statement(s) is(are) true ?

A metal surface is illuminated by light of two different wavelengths 248 nm and 310 nm. The maximum speeds of the photoelectrons corresponding to these wavelengths are u1 and u2, respectively. If the ratio u1:u2=2:1 and hc=1240 eV nm, the work function of the metal is nearly

In a historical experiment to determine Planck's constant, a metal surface was irradiated with light of different wavelengths. The emitted photoelectron energies were measured by applying a stopping potential. The relevant data for the wavelength (λ) of incident light and the corresponding stopping potential V0 are given below:
 
λμm V0volt
0.3 2.0
0.4 1.0
0.5 0.4

Given that c=3×108 m s-1 and e=1.6×10-19C,  Planck's constant (in units of J s) found from such an experiment is :
