According to Einstein's photoelectric equation, the plot of the Kinetic Energy of the emitted photoelectrons from a metal versus the frequency of the incident radiation gives a straight line whose slope :
- A depends on the nature of the metal used
- B depends on the intensity of the radiation
- C depends both on the intensity of the radiation and the metal used
- D is the same for all metals and independent of the intensity of the radiation
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) is the same for all metals and independent of the intensity of the radiation
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Einstein's photoelectric equation: \( KE_{max} = h\nu - \phi \) Plotting \( KE_{max} \) vs. \( \nu \), the equation is in the form \( y = mx + c \). Slope \( m = h \). \( h \) (Planck's constant) is a universal constant. Thus, the slope is the same for all metals and independent…
