Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) is \(\left(\frac{1}{\mathrm{e}}\right)\) times the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

From Einstein photoelectric equation
\(\frac{h c}{\lambda}=\phi+e V_S\)
Maximum K.E. \(=(\mathrm{K})_{\max }=e V s\)
So, \(V_S=\frac{(\mathrm{K})_{\max }}{e}\)
