To find the cut-off voltage (stopping potential) for photoelectric emission, we can use the photoelectric effect equation derived from Einstein's theory: \[ KE_{max} = h\nu - h\nu_0 \] Where: - \( KE_{max} \) is the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted electrons, - \( h \) is Planck's constant, - \( \nu \) is the frequency of the incident light, ...
