In photoelectric effect, the stopping potential depends on the

  1. A intensity of the incident radiation
  2. B Frequency of the incident radiation only
  3. C nature of the material only
  4. D frequency of the incident radiation and nature of material both
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) frequency of the incident radiation and nature of material both

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The stopping potential is given by \(V_s = \frac{h\nu}{e} - \frac{\phi}{e}\). It depends on the frequency of the incident radiation (\(\nu\)) and the work function (\(\phi\)), which is characteristic of the material. frequency of the incident radiation and nature of material both
