उत्तर
is related to the shortest wavelength
For photoelectric effect to be observed, wavelength of the incident light `(λ)` should be less than the threshold wavelength `(λ_0)` of the metal .
Einstein's photoelectric equation :
`eV_0 = (hc)/(λ_0) - varphi`
Here, V0 = stopping potential
`λ_0` = threshold wavelength
h = Planck's constant
`varphi` = work-function of metal
It is clear from the above equation that stopping potential is related to the shortest wavelength (threshold wavelength).
