Millikan linear relation (V₀ vs ν) (eV₀ = hν − φ)

jee-mainjee-advanced

eV₀ = hν − φ

What each symbol means

SymbolWhat it stands for
νIncident light frequency (Hz)
V₀Stopping potential (V)
h,φ,ePlanck constant, work function, elementary charge

When to use this

For ν ≥ ν₀, graph of V₀ vs ν is a straight line with slope h/e and x-intercept ν₀.
