  2. The stopping potential vary for incident radiations of different intensities but same frequency?
  3. Photoelectric current vary for different intensities but same frequency of incident radiations?
Justify your answer in each case.

Answer

  1. Saturation current does not change.
  1. stopping potential does not change.
  1. Photoelectric current increases with increase in intensity.
