MCQ
As the intensity of incident light increases
- ✓Photoelectric current increases
- BPhotoelectric current decreases
- CKinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons increases
- DKinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons decreases
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
Photoelectric current increases
a
(a)Intensity increases means more photons of same energy will emit more electrons of same energy, hence only photoelectric current increases.
(a)Intensity increases means more photons of same energy will emit more electrons of same energy, hence only photoelectric current increases.
