In photoelectric effect the slope of stop of stopping potential versus frequency of incident light for a given surface will be

Assertion : The stopping potential depends on the frequency of incident light. Reason : The stopping potential is related to maximum kinetic energy by eV_(0)=K_(max) .

Assertion: If frequency of incident light is doubled, the stopping potential will also become two times Reason: Stopping potential is given by V_0 = (h)/(e ) (v-v_0)

Explain giving reasons for the following : (a) Photoelectric current in a photocell increases with the increase in intensity of the incident radiation. (b) The stopping potential V_0 varies linearly with the frequency nu of the incident radiation for a given photosensitive surface with the slope remaining the same for different surfaces. (c) Maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is independent of the intensity of incident radiation.

In a historical experiment to determine Planck's constant, a metal surface was irradiated with light of different wavelengths. The emitted photoelectron energies were measured by applying a stopping potential. The relevant data for the wavelength (lambda) . ) of incident light and the corresponding stopping potential (V_0 ) are given below : Given that c=3xx10^8ms^(-1) and e=1.6xx10^(-19)C Planck's constant (in units of J s) found from such an experiment is

The stopping potential for photoelectrons from a metal surface is V_(1) when monochromatic light of frequency upsilon_(1) is incident on it. The stopping potential becomes V_(2) when monochromatic light of another frequency is incident on the same metal surface. If h be the Planck’s constant and e be the charge of an electron, then the frequency of light in the second case is:

The following figure shows a graph for the stopping potential as a function of the frequency of incident light illuminating a metal surface. Find the photoelectric work function for this surface.
