- A photo-emissive substance is illuminated with a radiation of wavelength $ \lambda_i $ so that it releases electrons with de-Broglie wavelength $ \lambda_e $. The longest wavelength of radiation that can emit photoelectron is $ \lambda_0 $. Expression for de-Broglie wavelength is given by : (m : mass of the electron, h : Planck's constant and c : speed of light)

- Explain the following observations using Einstein’s photoelectric equation:
(a) Photoelectric emission does not occur from a surface when the frequency of the light incident on it is less than a certain minimum value.
(b) It is the frequency, and not the intensity of the incident light which affects the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons.
(c) The cut-off voltage \( V_0 \) versus frequency \( \nu \) of the incident light curve is a straight line with a slope \( \frac{h}{e} \).
