Define the term "cut off frequency" in photoelectric emission. The threshod frequency of a metal is f. When the light of frequency 2f is incident on the metal plate, the maximum velocity of photo-electrons is v₁. When the frequency of the incident radiation is increased to 5f, the maximum velocity of phto-electrons is v₂. Find the ratio v₁ : v₂.
