Answer

The frequency of metal P is lower than Q , due to which value of threshold wavelength will be higher. Since,
$
\lambda_0=\frac{c}{v}
$Therefore, the threshold frequency of plate P will be greater. The value of frequency for plate $Q$ is high and as work function $= h \times$ threshold frequency
So work function of metal Q will be high.

Two metal strips, each of length l, are clamped parallel to each other on a horizontal floor with a separation b between them. A wire of mass m lies on them perpendicularly, as shown in A vertically-upward magnetic field of strength B exists in the space. The metal strips are smooth but the coefficient of friction between the wire and the floor is $\mu.$ A current i is established when the switch S is closed at the instant t = 0. Discuss the motion of the wire after the switch is closed. How far away from the strips will the wire reach?

Two bar magnets are placed close to each other with their opposite poles facing each other. In absence of other force the magnets are pulled towards each other and their kinetic energy increases. Does it contradict our earher knowledge that magnetic forces cannot do any work and hence cannot increase kinetic energy of a system?
