Solution

The correct option is C Plancks constant
Answer is C.
$E_{k} = h ν - ϕ$
So, comparing it with
$y = m x + c$
we get slope $= h$

When a high frequency electromagnetic radiation is incident on a metallic surface, electrons are emitted from the surface. Energy of emitted photoelectrons depends only on the frequency of incident electromagnetic radiation and the number of emitted electrons depends only on the intensity of incident light.
