The harder problem, the measurement of the electron energy, is accomplished through a nonstandard use of a photocell. In standard photocell operation, current is read from an anode that is held at a positive potential relative to a large area photocathode.
The number of photons incident on the plate per second (called photon flux) is given by If f > f0(threshold frequency) and photon efficiency of the metal plate is η %, then the number of photoelectrons emitted per second is given by n = Φη/100 [P/4πr 2× A / hf]] η/100 Finally, the photocurrent i is given by i = ne
If f is the frequency of radiation, then the energy of photon is given by The number of photons incident on the plate per second (called photon flux) is given by If f > f0(threshold frequency) and photon efficiency of the metal plate is η %, then the number of photoelectrons emitted per second is given by n = Φη/100 [P/4πr 2× A / hf]] η/100
In standard photocell operation, current is read from an anode that is held at a positive potential relative to a large area photocathode. When illuminated by light above the cut-off frequency, the photoelectrons flow from the cathode to the anode and create a detectable photocurrent. Figure 2. Normal Photocell Operation

In experiments used to investigate the photoelectric effect, the photoelectrons are usually collected on a metal plate detector, which forms part of an electrical circuit. The current measured in the circuit is proportional to the number of electrons striking the detector plate.
Photoelectrons are only emitted if each incoming photon has enough energy to remove an electron from at least the surface of the metal. This means that the photon energy, (hf), needs to be at least equal to the work function, (phi), …
