Dear student,

Stopping potential for an incoming photon is equal to the energy of it per unit charge.

Hence stopping potential of4000A^{\circ}photon is\dfrac{hc}{e\lambda}=3.1V


Hence stopping potential of3600A^{\circ} photon is\dfrac{hc}{e\lambda}=3.44V
Hence the required difference=0.34V

In 1st case : stopping potential=12400/4000=3.1ev.                                    In 2nd case : stopping potential=12400/3600=3.44ev                                   Difference=3.44- 2.06=0.34ev
