A source emits photons of energy 5 eV which are incident on a metallic sphere of work function 3.0 eV . The radius of the sphere is r =8 10⁻³ ~m . It is observed that after some time emission of photoelectrons from the metallic sphere is stopped. Charge on the sphere when the photoemission stops is.
