The stopping potential in a photoelectri...

The stopping potential in a photoelectric experiment is linearly related to the inverse of the wavelength `(1/lambda)` of the light falling on the cathode. The potential difference applied across an X-ray tube is linearly related to the inverse of the cutoff wavelength `(1/lambda)` of the X-ray emitted. Show that the slopes of the lines in the two cases are equal and find its value.
