AIPMT MAINS 2010 Physics Intensity and Kinetic Energy MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

When monochromatic radiation of intensity II falls on a metal surface, the number of photoelectron and their maximum kinetic energy are NN and TT respectively. If the intensity of radiation is 2I2I, the number of emitted electrons and their maximum kinetic energy are respectively

A

NN and 2T2T

B

2N2N and TT

C

2N2N and 2T2T

D

NN and TT

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

The number of photoelectrons is proportional to intensity, while maximum kinetic energy is independent of intensity.
