Q. When the free electrons in the metal gets sufficient energy from a light source, they jump out of the metal.

Why were electrons coming out from a metal when it was kept under a light source?

Q. Assertion :Though light of a single frequency (monochromatic light) is incident on a metal, the energies of emitted photoelectrons are different. Reason: The energy of electrons just after they absorb photons incident on the metal surface may be lost in collision with other atoms in the metal before the electron is ejected out of the metal.
