When a certain photo-sensitive surface is illuminated with monochromatic light of frequency v, the stopping potential for photo-electric current is V0 / 2When the same surface is illuminated by mono-chromatic light of frequency v / 2, the stopping
potential is V0. The threshold frequency for photoelectric emission is
we know that h v =v0 +e V
For frequency v, we have
FOR frequency v/2 we have
Solving egs. (1) and (2) . we get
