Given, fi=f0. Now, f=2fi=2f0.
Since 2f0<f0 i.e. the incident frequency is less than threshold frequency. Hence, there will be no emission of photoelectrons.
Therefore, current =0 and no photo electrons will be emitted.

An electron is travelling with a velocity $v$ in free space and when it enters a medium, its velocity is reduced by $20\%$. The de Broglie wavelength of electron in the medium is $\alpha\lambda_0$, where $\lambda_0$ is its de Broglie wavelength in free space. The value of $\alpha$ is _______.
The maximum rated power of the LED is $2$ mW and it is used in the circuit with input voltage of $5$ V as shown in the figure below. The current through resistance $R_S$ is $0.5$ mA. The minimum value of the resistance of $R_S$, to ensure that the LED is not damaged is _______ k$\Omega$.
