Å.
Coincident
Parallel with same slope h
Concurrent
Curved
Solution
Slope = h is universal; intercepts (f_0) differ → parallel lines.
Solution
eV J. /s.
Doubles
More than doubles
Halves
Stays same
Solution
Photon energy doubles, but W_0 stays. So . More than doubles.
Frequency
Intensity
Both
Neither
Solution
Saturation I depends only on intensity, not frequency.

Solution
. Ratio = .
Intensity is high
Frequency exceeds threshold
Light is monochromatic
V is high
Solution
f > f_0 is the only condition for emission.

Cheap
Visible light enough to eject electrons
Hard metal
High density
Solution
Low W_0 means visible light gives photoemission.

0.12 nm
Both A and C
Solution
λ = 12.27/√100 = 1.23 Å = 0.123 nm.
Voltage is too high
All emitted electrons reach the anode
Light is too bright
Battery dies
Solution
Beyond a small V, every electron emitted reaches the collector. Adding more V doesn't increase I.
Solution
/s.
Doubles
More than doubles
Halves
Stays same
Solution
. Doubling hν doubles hν but W_0 unchanged → V_0 more than doubles.
