MCQ
Which of the following statement is correct? 
  • A
    Photo-current increases with intensity of light
  • B
    Photo-current is proportional to the applied voltage
  • C
    Current in photocell increases with increasing frequency
  • D
    Stopping potential increases with increase of incident light

Answer

  1. Photo-current increases with intensity of light

Explanation:

More is the intensity of incident radiation, more is the umber of photons and thus more is the number of photo electrons emitted. This results in the increase in the photo-current.
