According to Einstein's photoelectric equation, the graph of KE of the photoelectron emitted from the metal versus the frequency of the incident radiation gives a straight line graph, whose slope
Options
- Adepends on the intensity of the incident radiation
- Bdepends on the nature of the metal and also on the intensity of incident radiation
- Cis same for all metals and independent of the intensity of the incident radiation
- Ddepends on the nature of the metal
Correct answer
C. is same for all metals and independent of the intensity of the incident radiation
Step-by-step solution
According to Einstein's photoelectric equation KE _ = hv - ₀ Comparing with the equation of straight line y=m x+c We get, slope of graph =h
