Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the stopping potential when the maximum kinetic energy of a photoelectron is given, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the relationship between kinetic energy and stopping potential**: The maximum kinetic energy (KE) of a photoelectron can be expressed in terms of the stopping potential (V₀) using the equation: \[ KE = e \cdot V_0 ...
