Properties of Photon:
$\text{K}_{max} = \text{hv} - \phi_{0}$
or $\text{eV}_{0} = \text{hv} -\phi_{0}$
Alternate Answer
(The stopping potential ($\text{V}_{0}$) equals that (least) value of the (negative) plate potential that just stops the most energetic emitted photoelectrons from reaching the plate.)
(For a given photosensitive surface, its threshold frequency is the minimum value of the frequency of incident radiation for which photoelectrons can be just emitted from that surface or that maximum frequency of incident radiation below which no photo emission takes place.)
The plot, between $\text{V}_{0}$ and$\vartheta , $ , has the form shown:
- For a radiation of frequency$\upsilon$, each photon has an energy, $\text{E} = \text{h}v,$ associated with it.
- The energy of a photon is independent of the intensity of incident radiation.
- During the collision of a photon, with an electron, the total energy of the photon gets absorbed by the electron.
$\text{K}_{max} = \text{hv} - \phi_{0}$
or $\text{eV}_{0} = \text{hv} -\phi_{0}$
- Stopping potential, $\text{V}_{0}$ equals that value of the negative potential for which

- Threshold frequency $(\vartheta_{o})$ equals that value of the frequency of incident radiation for which $\text{K}_{max} = 0 . $
(For a given photosensitive surface, its threshold frequency is the minimum value of the frequency of incident radiation for which photoelectrons can be just emitted from that surface or that maximum frequency of incident radiation below which no photo emission takes place.)
