Detailed Solution

Given Data:

The work function of a metal is 5eV and photons of energy 20 eV .

Formula Used:

stopping potential = (incident energy - work function)/e

Detailed Solution:stopping potential = (incident energy - work function)/e

=(20ev5ev)/e

=15eV/e
=15V

Hence,the correct option is C.
