Photoelectric Experiment: Intensity, Stopping Potential & Graphs

For the photoelectric effect, the maximum kinetic energy (Ek)(E_k) of the photoelectrons is plotted against the frequency (v)(v) of the incident photons as shown in figure. The slope of the graph gives

Figure

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Ek=hν−ϕE_k = h\nu - \phi, so dEkdν=h\frac{dE_k}{d\nu} = h.
  2. Slope tan⁡θ=h\tan\theta = h.
  3. So the answer is (a) Planck's constant.
