equation of maximum kinetic energy before einstien here v not is the

retarding potential and e is the carge of electron

einstien’s equation of photo electric effect where h is the planck


constant and v is frequency and phi not is the work function of metal or the energy required by an
electron to escape the surface of a metal

photo electric effect is only possible if these conditions are satisfied. Here v
not is the cut off frequency which is the minimum frequency requird for photo electrons to travel
and produce current and below this nothing happens

Momentum of photon : and its energy : here h is plank


constant

for calculating wavelength

p is momentum and m is mass and v s speed and lambda


is the de Broglie wavelength
