Correct answer: B

The question is about the photoelectric effect, i.e. the relation between incident light and the electron emitted from a metal surface.

However, the actual graphs for options A, B, C, D are not visible in the prompt. So the answer depends entirely on what each graph looks like.

1. Key relations in photoelectric effect

For photoelectric emission:

  1. Maximum kinetic energy of emitted electrons: Kmax⁡=hν−ϕK_{\max} = h\nu - \phiKmax​=hν−ϕ So Kmax⁡K_{\max}Kmax​ varies linearly with frequency ν\nuν and is independent of intensity.

  2. Photoelectric current depends on intensity of incident light (for ν>ν0\nu > \nu_0ν>ν0​), so current generally increases with intensity.

  3. There is a threshold frequency ν0\nu_0ν0​ below which no electron is emitted.

  4. Stopping potential satisfies: eV0=Kmax⁡=hν−ϕeV_0 = K_{\max} = h\nu - \phieV0​=Kmax​=hν−ϕ So stopping potential also varies linearly with frequency.

2. What kind of graph would be incorrect?

A graph would not represent the correct relationship if it shows any of the following:

  1. Kinetic energy increasing with intensity
  2. Photoelectric current depending on frequency in place of intensity in a wrong way
  3. Emission below threshold frequency
  4. Stopping potential vs frequency being non-linear when it should be linear

3. Comparison with stored answer

Since the actual option-graphs are missing, I cannot independently derive which one is wrong from the visual data. The stored answer says B.

Given the exam context, I will accept the stored answer B, but this cannot be fully verified without seeing the graphs.

4. Final answer

The graph that does not represent the correct relationship is: B\boxed{\text{B}}B​
