In a photo cell, the photo-electrons emission takes place

Light of intensity $10^{-5}\; W m ^{-2}$ falls on a sodium photo-cell of surface area $2 \;cm ^{2}$. Assuming that the top $5$ layers of sodium absorb the incident energy, estimate time required for photoelectric emission in the wave-picture of radiation. The work function for the metal is given to be about $ 2\; eV$. What is the implication of your answer?

When light of a given wavelength is incident on a metallic surface, the minimum potential needed to stop the emitted photoelectrons is $6.0 V$. This potential drops to $0.6 V$ if another source with wavelength four times that of the first one and intensity half of the first one is used. What are the wavelength of the first source and the work function of the metal, respectively? $\left[\right.$ Take $\left.=\frac{h c}{c}=1.24 \times 10^{-6} Jm ^{-1}.\right]$
