Type: MCQ-diagram based-Easy-Class 12
Refer to the diagram of the photoelectric effect experiment. Which factor primarily influences the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons?

A
Frequency of the incident light
B
Intensity of the incident light
C
Distance between emitter and collector
D
Type of metal used as emitter
