The graph between the stopping potential \( V_{0} \) and frequency \( v \) for two different metal plates \( P \) and \( Q \) are shown in the figure. Which of the metals has greater threshold wavelength and work function ?

Answer»

The threshold frequency of metal plate P is lesser than that of Q.

Since λ∝ 1/ν, the threshold wavelength of metal plate P is greater than that of Q.

The work function of a metal is given as 
W0 =hν0

Since the threshold frequency of metal Q is greater, the work function it is also greater than that of P.
