Question

Of the following statements about the photoelectric eect, which are true and which are false?

(a) The greater the frequency of incident light, the greater the stopping potential.

(b) The greater the frequency of incident light, the greater the cuto frequency.

(c) The greater the work function of the target material, the greater the stopping potential.

(d) The greater the work function of the target material, the greater the cuto frequency.

(e) The greater the light frequency, the greater the maximum kinetic energy of the ejected electrons.

(f) The greater the energy of the photons, the smaller the stopping potential.

Can someone please explain why these are true or false?

Thanks

Explanation / Answer

a) false becoz the stopage potential is dependent on the metal not on the incident light

b) false

c)true

d)true more energy packet is required to remove the electrons from metal with more amount of work function

e)true

f)false its dependent on the metal not on the incident metal
