According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the graph of the kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from a metal versus the frequency of incident radiation is a straight line whose slope:

  • A
    Depends on the type of metal used.
  • B
    Depends on the intensity of radiation.
  • C
    Depends on both the intensity of radiation and the metal used.
  • D
    Is the same for all metals and is independent of the intensity of radiation.

According to the photoelectric effect,the plot of kinetic energy of the emitted photo-electrons from a metal versus the frequency of the incident radiation gives a straight line whose slope

Initially,a photon of wavelength $\lambda_1$ falls on a photocathode and emits an electron of maximum energy $E_1$. If the wavelength of the incident photon is changed to $\lambda_2$,the maximum energy of the electron emitted becomes $E_2$. Then the value of $hc$ ($h=$ Planck's constant,$c=$ velocity of light) is
