Photoelectric Experiment: Intensity, Stopping Potential & Graphs

When monochromatic radiation of intensity II falls on a metal surface, the number of photoelectrons and their maximum kinetic energy are N and T respectively. If the intensity of radiation is 2II, the number of emitted electrons and their maximum kinetic energy are respectively

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. Number of photoelectrons ∝\propto intensity: I→2II \to 2I gives N→2NN \to 2N.
  2. Kmax=hν−ϕK_{max} = h\nu - \phi is independent of intensity: TT stays TT.
  3. So the answer is (b) 2N2N and TT.
