MCQ
Threshold frequency is the frequency :
  • A
    Below which, the value of photoelectric current remains constant.
  • B
    Below which, the photoelectric current increases with the potential difference.
  • C
    At frequencies higher than this the photo-electric current becomes saturated.
  • Photo-electrons are not emitted at frequencies lower than this.

Answer

Correct option: D.
Photo-electrons are not emitted at frequencies lower than this.
(D) - Photo-electrons are not emitted at frequencies lower than this.
