| This question has Statement 1 and Statement 2 [JEE ONLINE 19-05-2012] |
| Of the four choices given after the Statements, choose the one that best describes the two Statements. |
| Statement 1: A metallic surface is irradiated by a monochromatic light of frequency \[\upsilon >{{\upsilon }_{0}}\] (the threshold frequency). If the incident frequency is now doubled, the photocurrent and the maximum kinetic energy are also doubled. |
| Statement 2: The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons emitted from a surface is linearly dependent on the frequency of the incident light. |
| The photocurrent depends only on the intensity of the incident light. |
A) Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1.
B) Statement 1 is false. Statement 2 is true.
C) Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is false.
D) Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true, Statement 2 is not the correct explanation of Statement 1.
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
[b] The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons depends upon frequency on incident light and photo current depends upon intensity of incident light.
