उत्तर
If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
Explanation:
When the frequency of the incident radiation exceeds the threshold frequency, the photoelectric current is proportional to the intensity of the radiation. As a result, the assertion is correct. As the intensity rises, so does the number of energy quanta accessible. By absorbing more energy quanta, a bigger number of electrons are emitted. A higher number of electrons equals a higher current. As a result, the photoelectric current becomes proportional to radiation intensity. So, the reason is also true, and it adequately explains the assumption.
