उत्तर
Effect of frequency of the incident radiation:
Taking radiations of different frequencies but of same intensity, the variation between photoelectric current and potential of plate A is obtained and shown in graph given below:
From the graph, we note:
(i) The value of stopping potential is different for radiation of different frequency.
(ii) The value of stopping potential is more negative for radiation of higher incident frequency.
(iii) The value of saturation current depends on the intensity of incident radiation, but is independent of the frequency of the incident radiation.

Consider an electron in front of metallic surface at a distance d (treated as an infinite plane surface). Assume the force of attraction by the plate is given as `1/4 q^2/(4πε_0d^2)`.
