How does retarding potential vary with the frequency of light causing photoelectric effect?(a) Infinite(b) Zero(c) Decreases(d) IncreasesThis question was posed to me by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.My question comes from Einstein’s Photoelectric Equation : Energy Quantum of Radiation in portion Dual Nature of Radiation and Matter of Physics – Class 12

Answer»

Correct CHOICE is (d) Increases

For explanation I WOULD say: The stopping potential is directly proportional to the frequency of light.

Hence, the stopping potential increases with an INCREASE in the frequency of the INCIDENT light.
