Q. The stopping potential is directly related to

Dual Nature of Radiation and Matter

Solution:

For the given frequency of incident light $K_{\max }=e V_0$
where $K_{\max }$ is the maximum kinetic energy gained by photoelectron and $V_0$ is the minimum retarding potential for which the photocurrent stops.
$e=$ charge of electron.
