Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the question regarding the maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted when the stopping potential is given as 2V, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Concept**: The stopping potential (V₀) in the photoelectric effect is the potential needed to stop the most energetic photoelectrons emitted from a material. The maximum kinetic energy (K.E.) of the emitted photoelectrons can be calculated using the formula: \[ K.E. = e \cdot V₀ \] ...
