In a historical experiment to determine Planck's constant, a metal surface was irradiated with light of different wavelengths. The emitted photoelectron energies were measured by applying a stopping potential. The relevant data for the wavelength of incident light and the corresponding stopping potential are given below:
0.3 | 2.0 |
0.4 | 1.0 |
0.5 | 0.4 |
Given that Planck's constant (in units of ) found from such an experiment is :
