Laws of photoelectric emission



Laws of photoelectric emission :-
1.       The incident radiation should posses the minimum frequency required to pull the electron from the surface of metal known as threshold frequency.
2.       For the incident radiation with the threshold frequency. The photoelectric current increases with increase in it's intensity.
3.       The velocity of emitted electron and energy of emitted electron is independent of the intensity of the light and depends only in the frequency of the incident light and nature of the metal,
4.       The maximum velocity (Vmax) and stopping potential are independent of the incident light but are directly proportional to the frequency of incident radiation.
