Question

Kinetic energy with which the electrons are emitted from the metal surface due to photoelectric effect is

• A. Independent of the intensity of illumination
• B. Independent of the frequency of light
• C. Inversely proportional to the intensity of illumination
• D. Directly proportional to the intensity of illumination

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Independent of the intensity of illumination

Kinetic energy of photoelectrons depends on the frequency of incident radiations and is independent of the intensity of illumination.
