  1. The slope of the cut-off voltage (V) versus frequency (v) of an incident light is given as:

    v/v = 4.12 x 10-15 Vs

    V is related to frequency by the equation hv = eV

    Where, e = Charge on an electron = 1.6 x 10-19 C and

    h = Planck’s constant Therefore, h = e x (v/v)= 1.6 x 10-19 x 4.12 x 1015 = 6.592 x 1034 Js

    Hence ,the value of Plank’s constant is 6.592 x 1034 Js
