hv=hv0+KE Kinetic energy of the photo electrons emitted depends on the frequency of incident light. More is frequency of incident light, more is the K.E. of emitted electron & therefore more is the velocity of emitted electrons.

When light of sufficiently high frequency is incident on a metallic surface, electrons are emitted from the metallic surface. This phenomenon is called photoelectric emission. Kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons depends on the wavelength of incident light and is independent of the intensity of light. Number of emitted photoelectrons depends on intensity. (hν−ϕ) is the maximum kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons (where ϕ is the work function of metallic surface). Reverse effect of photo emission produces X-ray. X-ray is not deflected by electric and magnetic fields. Wavelength of a continuous X-ray depends on potential difference across the tube. Wavelength of characteristic X-ray depends on the atomic number. If potential difference across the tube is increased then:
