A graph of stopping potential of a photo sensitive metal with the frequency of incident radiation is plotted. What does the slope of this curve represent?

Define the terms (i) 'cut-off voltage' and (ii) threshold frequency' in relation to the phenomenon of photoelectric effect. Using Einstein's photoelectric equation show how the cut-off voltage and threshold frequency for a given photosensitive material can be determined with the help of a suitable "plot" // "graph" .

X-rays fall on a photosensitive surface to cause photoelectric emission. Assuming that the work function of the surface can be neglected, find the relation between the de-Broglie wavelength ( lambda ) of the electrons emitted to the energy ( E_(v) ) of the incident photons. Draw the nature of the graph for lambda as a function of E_(v) .

Light emitted during the de excitation of electron from n = 3 to n = 2, when incident on a metal, photoelectrons are just emitted from that metal. In which of the following deexcitations photoelectric effect is not possible ?
