In the photoelectric effect, if the incident photons have a wavelength that is larger than the threshold wavelength, _______.

no electrons will be emitted from the metal surface

electrons will be ejected from the metal surface

there will be photoelectric current

the kinetic energy of the ejected electrons increases

The diagram shows a circuit involving a photoelectric cell. When UV light is shone onto the metal cathode, electrons are emitted establishing a photocurrent. Which of the following changes could cause the photocurrent to stop?

Increasing the potential difference of the power supply.

Increasing the frequency of the UV light.

Increasing the intensity of the UV light.

Changing the metal surface to one with a smaller work function.

The photoelectric effect is when:

One incident photon releases one electron from a metal.

Electrons collide inside a metal to release photons.

One incident metal electron releases one photon.

Photons are absorbed in to metal ions releasing electrons.

In an experiment, photoelectric effect is observed in metal A when light with frequency ( f ) falls on the metal. If the light frequency used in this experiment is doubled, the photoelectrons

Will be ejected with greater kinetic energy

Will be ejected as observed in the previous

Will be ejected with greater number of photoelectrons

A metal surface is struck with light of λ = 400 nm, releasing a stream of electrons. If the 400 nm light is replaced by λ= 300 nm light of the same intensity, what is the result?

Emitted electrons are more energetic

More electrons are emitted in a given time interval

Fewer electrons are emitted in a given time interval

Emitted electrons are less energetic
