A hot body is placed in a closed room maintained at a lower temperature. Is the number of photons in the room increasing?

उत्तर
As the hot body is placed in a closed room maintained at a lower temperature, there will be transfer of heat in the room through convection and radiation. Heat radiation also consists of photons; therefore, photons will be emitted by the hot body. Hence, the number of photons in the room will increase.

How would the stopping potential for a given photosensitive surface change if the frequency of the incident radiation were increased? Justify your answer.
- Assertion (A): For the radiation of a frequency greater than the threshold frequency, the photoelectric current is proportional to the intensity of the radiation.
- Reason (R): Greater the number of energy quanta available, the greater the number of electrons absorbing the energy quanta and the greater the number of electrons coming out of the metal.
