Question:

In a photoelectric graph of stopping potential vs frequency, straight line makes angle \( \theta \) with Y-axis. Then \( \tan \theta = \):

Show Hint

Slope of \( V \) vs \( f \) graph in photoelectric effect gives \( \frac{h}{e} \).

  • \( \frac{h}{e} \)
  • \( \frac{e}{h} \)
  • \( \sqrt{\frac{h}{e}} \)
  • \( \sqrt{\frac{e}{h}} \)

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Einstein’s equation: \( eV = hf - \phi \Rightarrow V = \frac{h}{e}f - \frac{\phi}{e} \)
So slope of graph \( V \) vs \( f \) = \( \frac{h}{e} \Rightarrow \tan \theta = \frac{h}{e} \)
