In a photoelectric experiment, electrons are ejected from metals X and Y by light of intensity and frequency . The potential difference required to stop the electrons is measured for various frequencies. If Y has a greater work function than X, which one of the following graphs best illustrates the expected results?
Options:
Answer:
A
Solution:
Both metals have slope .
Y has the larger work function, so its frequency-axis intercept is farther right.
Graph A follows.
