    Work function, φ0 = 6.2eV.
    Stopping potential V0 = 5V. ​
    As, eV0 = hv –  φ0

    or eV0 + φ0 =
    hc
    λ

    or λ =
    hc
    eV0 + φ0

    λ =
    6.62 × 10-34 Js × 3 × 108 ms-1
    1.6 × 10-19 × 5J + 6.2 × 1.6 × 10-19J

    1.6 × 10-19 (5 + 6.2)

    =
    19.86 × 10-26
    1.10 × 10-7 m
    17.92 × 10-19

    Thus the wavelength of the incident radiation lies in the ultraviolet region.
