This implies that greater the frequency of incident light, greater is the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons Consequently, we need greater retarding potential to stop them completely If we plot a graph between the frequency of incident radiation and the corresponding stopping potential for different metals we get a straight line, as shown in Fig 11
