(B) According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,the maximum kinetic energy $(K_{max})$ is given by: $K_{max} = h\nu - \Phi_0$,where $\Phi_0$ is the work function.Since $K_{max} = eV_0$,we can write: $eV_0 = h\nu - \Phi_0$.Dividing by $e$,we get: $V_0 = (\frac{h}{e})\nu - \frac{\Phi_0}{e}$.Comparing this with the equation of a straight line $y = mx + c$,where $y = V_0$ and $x = \nu$,the slope $(m)$ is $\frac{h}{e}$.Multiplying the slope by the charge of the electron $(e)$,we get: $m \times e = (\frac{h}{e}) \times e = h$.Thus,the product gives the Planck's constant $(h)$.
