- \(\frac{v_1}{v_2}=\frac{1}{3}\)
- \(\frac{v_1}{v_2} = \frac{1}{4}\)
- \(\frac{v_1}{v_2} = 1
- \(\frac{v_1}{v_2} = \frac{1}{2}\)

Top Questions on Photoelectric Effect
- Assertion : Photoelectric effect is a spontaneous phenomenon. Reason (R): According to the wave picture of radiation, an electron would take hours/days to absorb sufficient energy to overcome the work function and come out from a metal surface.
