The maximum kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons depends on
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
According to Einstein's photoelectric equation,
where 
is the frequency of incident radiation and 
is the work function of a metal.
Thus, the maximum kinetic energy 
) of emitted photoelectrons depends on frequency of incident radiation but not on its intensity and speed and number of photons in the incident radiation.
