Question:

Keeping the frequency of the incident radiation and the accelerating potential fixed, the intensity of light is varied and the resulting photoelectric current is measured each time by the graph

Options:

Correct Answer:

Explanation:

We know,

Increasing intensity of incident radiation increases the number of photons striking the metal surface resulting in increase in number of ejected photoelectrons and hence photocurrent increases with increase in intensity of incident radiation.
