उत्तर
(a) Variable X is the accelerating potential applied across the photosensitive material.
(b) A represents the stopping potential for the given photosensitive metal. Stopping potential is the minimum negative potential V0 applied across the photosensitive material at which the photoelectric current becomes zero.
(c) Graph for three different values of frequencies of incident radiation v1, v2 and v3 (v1 > v2 > v3) for same intensity
(d) Graph for three different values of intensities of incident radiation I1, I2 and I3 (I1 > I2 > I3) having same frequency
