Consider if we incident a photon on a metal plate causes the emission of a photoelectron, now if we increase the intensity of photon to thrice of its initial value then the kinetic energy of photoelectron will Correct Answer not change

CONCEPT:

Important Points

  • When we increase the number of photons or intensity of the incident radiations then the number of electrons ejected will increase but the maximum kinetic energy of electrons will not change.
