Problem

In a photoelectric experiment set up, photons of energy 5 eV falls on the cathode having work function 3 eV. (a) If the saturation current is iA=4μAi_A = 4\mu A for intensity 10−5 W/m210^{-5} \text{ W/m}^2, then plot a graph between anode potential and current. (b) Also draw a graph for intensity of incident radiation 2×10−5 W/m22 \times 10^{-5} \text{ W/m}^2.
