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 J s) found from such an experiment is :
