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.

(a) Estimate the speed with which electrons emitted from a heated emitter of an evacuated tube impinge on the collector maintained at a potential difference of 500 V with respect to the emitter. Ignore the small initial speeds of the electrons. The specific charge of the electron, i.e., its e/m is given to be 1.76 × 1011 C kg−1.

(b) Use the same formula you employ in (a) to obtain electron speed for an collector potential of 10 MV. Do you see what is wrong? In what way is the formula to be modified?
