how does the threshold frequency depend on intensity of light in photoelectric effect?

Dear student

the threshold frequency is a property of the object not of the incident light. let us say that E amount of energy is required to withdraw an electron from a metal surface. So, the incident light must deliver so much of energy to be able to witdraw an electron

let the frequency of the light be f
energy of the light = hf (h=planks constant)

If 

hf=E

then f is the threshold frequency of the metal

so, threshold frequency is property f the object not the light.

so, threshold frequency of metal does not define the intensity of the light.


Yes, for light itself, the intensity is more if frequency is more.
