This question has statement- and statement of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements. A metallic surface is irradiated by a monochromatic light of frequency (the threshold frequency). The maximum kinetic energy and stopping potential are and respectively. If the frequency incident on the surface is doubled, both the and are doubled.
Statement-II The maximum kinetic energy and the stopping potential of photoelectrons emitted from a surface are linearly dependent on the frequency of incident light:

Photoelectric effect experiments are performed using three different metal plates p, q and r having work functions and respectively, A light beam containing wavelength of and with equal intensities illuminates each of the plates. The correct graph for the experiment is, see Fig.



Figure Fig. represents a graph of kinetic energy of most energetic photoelectrons (in ), and frequency (v) for a metal used as cathode in photoelectric experiment. The threshold frequency of light for the photoelectric emission for the metal is

The figure, Fig. shows variation of photocurrent with anode potential for a photo-sensitive surface for three different radiations. Let and be the intensities and and be the frequencies for the curves a, b and c respectively. Then

In a photoelectric effect measurement, the stopping potential for a given metal is found to be volt when radiation of wavelength is used. If radiation of wavelength is used with the same metal then the stopping potential (in volts) will be

The threshold frequency for a metallic surface corresponds to an energy of and the stopping potential for a radiation incident on this surface is . The incident radiation lies in
