with the frequency 
of the incident radiation for three photosensitive metals 
and 
. Which metal will give out electrons with greater kinetic energy, for the same wavelength of incident radiation?
A
B
C
D
All the metals will give out photo electrons with same kinetic energies.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
