If the frequency of incident light in a photoelectric experiment is doubled, then stopping potential will (a) be doubled. (b) be halved. (c) become more than double. (d) become less than double.

Answer: (c). eV₀ = hν - φ. New: eV₀' = 2hν - φ = 2(hν - φ) + φ = 2eV₀ + φ. V₀' = 2V₀ + φ/e > 2V₀. So the answer is (c) become more than double.
