From the figure describing photoelectric effect we may infer correctly that

A

`Na` and `Al` both have the same threshold frequency

B

Maximum kinetic energy for both the metals depend linearly on the frequency

C

The stopping potentials are different for `Na` and `Al` for the same change in frequency

D

`Al` ia a better photo sensitive material than `Na`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Stopping potential equals to maximum kinetic energy. Since stopping potential is varying linearly with the frequency. The `max.KE` for both the metals also vary linearly with frequency.
