Answer the following questions:

$(a)$ guarks inside protons and neutrons are thought to carry fractional charges $[(+2 / 3) e ; (-1 / 3) e] .$ Why do they not show up in Millikan's oil-drop experiment?

$(b)$ What is so special about the combination $e / m ?$ Why do we not simply talk of $e$ and $m$ separately?

$(c)$ Why should gases be insulators at ordinary pressures and start conducting at very low pressures?

$(d)$ Every metal has a definite work function. Why do all photoelectrons not come out with the same energy if incident radiation is monochromatic? Why is there an energy distribution of photoelectrons?

$(e)$ The energy and momentum of an electron are related to the frequency and wavelength of the assoctated matter wave by the relations:

$E=h v, p=\frac{h}{\lambda}$

But while the value of $\lambda$ is physically significant, the value of $v$ (and therefore, the value of the phase speed $v \lambda$ ) has no physical significance. Why?

Define work function of metal and write its unit. 

An electron initially at rest, is accelerated through a potential difference of $ 200$  volt, so that it acquires a velocity $8.4 \times {10^6}m/s.$ The value of $e/m$ of electron will be

In Milikan’s experiment, an oil drop having charge $q$ gets stationary on applying a potential difference $V$ in between two plates separated by a distance $‘d’$. The weight of the drop is
