What is photoelectric effect ?

Explain the phenomenon photoelectric effect.

The electric field associated with a light wave is given by E= E_0 sin [(1.57xx 10^7 m^(-1)(x-ct)]. Find the stopping potential when this light is used in an experiment on photoelectric effect with a metal having work - function 1.9 eV.

By photoelectric effect, Einstein proved

Figure is the plot of the stopping potential versus the frequency of the light used in an experiment on photoelectric effect. Find (a) the ratio h/e and (b) the work function.
