AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem regarding the effects of doubling the intensity and frequency of incident light on stopping potential and saturation current, we can break it down into a series of steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between frequency and energy of photons The energy of a photon is given by the equation: \[ E = h \nu \] where \( E \) is the energy, \( h \) is Planck's constant, and \( \nu \) is the frequency of the light. ### Step 2: Analyze the effect of doubling the frequency ...
