According to Einstein’s explanation of the photoelectric effect, the maximum kinetic energy (KE_max) of the ejected electrons is given by KE_max = h(v – v₀), where h is Planck’s constant, v is the frequency of incident light, and v₀ is the threshold frequency. This equation shows that for v > v₀, the maximum kinetic energy is directly proportional to the frequency of the incident light; increasing v leads to increased KE_max.
