The maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons in photoelectric effect is independent of:
A
work function of material
B
intensity of incident radiation
C
frequency of incident radiation
D
wavelength of incident radiation
Detailed Solution
By Einstein's photoelectric equation, $KE_{max}=h\nu-\phi_0$, which depends on frequency (and hence wavelength) of incident radiation and the work function, but is independent of the intensity of the incident radiation.
