NEET Physics Photoelectric Effect Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Easy-Class 12

Assertion (A): The stopping potential is independent of the intensity of incident radiation for a given frequency.

Reason (R): The saturation current increases with the intensity of incident radiation, leading to more electrons being emitted per second.

A

Both A and R are true, and R explains A.

B

Both A and R are true, but R does not explain A.

C

A is true but R is false.

D

A is false but R is true.

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation

The stopping potential depends only on the frequency of the incident radiation, not its intensity. The reason given is true but does not explain the assertion.
