NEET Physics Photoelectric Effect MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about the photoelectric effect is correct?
The photocurrent increases linearly with the intensity of incident light.
The maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons increases with the intensity of incident light.
Photoelectrons are emitted regardless of the frequency of incident light.
The number of photoelectrons emitted per second is independent of the intensity of incident light.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The photocurrent increases linearly with intensity, indicating that the number of photoelectrons emitted per second is directly proportional to the intensity of the incident light, as stated in the NCERT context.
