Q 1 :    

Light of frequency 1.5 times the threshold frequency is incident on a photosensitive material. What will be the photoelectric current if the frequency is halved and intensity is doubled?              [2020]

  • Doubled

     

  • Four times

     

  • One-fourth

     

  • Zero

     

(4)

Initially, υ=1.5υ0

If the frequency is halved, υ'=υ2=1.5υ02<υ0

Hence, no photoelectric emission will take place.
