Question

According to Einstein's photoelectric equation, the graph of kinetic energy of the photoelectron emitted from the metal versus the frequency of the incident radiation gives a straight line graph, whose slope (A) depends on the intensity ofthe incident radiation (B) depends on the nature of the metal and also on the intensity of incident radiation (C) is same for all metals and independent of the intensity of the incident radiation (D) depends on the nature of the metal

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

According to Einsteins photoelectric equation Maximum kinetic energy,

K_{ma x} = h υ - ϕ_{0}

where,

h

= Planck’s constant

υ

= Frequency of incident light

ϕ_{0}

= Work function of a metal
Compare it with the equation of straight line

y = m x + c

we get, slope of the graph =

h
