NEET Physics Photoelectric Effect MCQ Question
What happens to the photocurrent when the intensity of light is increased while keeping the frequency of incident radiation constant?
It increases linearly with intensity.
It decreases linearly with intensity.
It remains constant regardless of intensity.
It becomes zero if intensity is too high.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The photocurrent increases linearly with the intensity of incident light, as it is directly proportional to the number of photoelectrons emitted per second, according to the NCERT context.
