A

depends on the nature of metal used

B

depends on the intensity or radiation

C

depends on both intensity of radiation and the nature of metal used

D

is the same for all metals and independent of the instensity or radiation

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`K_(max) = hf -W`
`K_(max) versus f graph is a straight line of slope h
(a universal constant).
