उत्तर
Energy of a photon of the given light is, E = `1240/lambda = 3 ev`
Thus, metals having work-function less than energy of photon of falling light will show photoelectric effect. So, Na and K will show photoelectric effect.

Define the term "cut off frequency" in photoelectric emission. The threshod frequency of a metal is f. When the light of frequency 2f is incident on the metal plate, the maximum velocity of photo-electrons is v1. When the frequency of the incident radiation is increased to 5f, the maximum velocity of phto-electrons is v2. Find the ratio v1 : v2.
