The variation of the stopping potential (\(V_0\)) with the frequency of incident radiation(n) is as given below.
[\(n_0\) - threshold frequency. h- Planck's constant e- electronic charge] then the slope of the graph AB with the frequency axis is:

  1. A \(\dfrac{h}{e}\)
  2. B \(\dfrac{n_0}{V_0}\)
  3. C \(\dfrac{hn_0}{V_0}\)
  4. D \(\dfrac{V_0}{n_0}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\dfrac{h}{e}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

According to Einstein's photoelectric equation, the maximum kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons is given by: \(K_{\text{max}} = hn - \Phi\) where \(h\) is Planck's constant, \(n\) is the frequency of incident radiation, and \(\Phi\) is the work function of the metal. We…
