Plot a graph showing the variation of photoelectric current, as a function of anode potential for two light beams having the same frequency but different intensities I₁ and I₂ (I₁ > I₂). Mention its important features.

A metallic plate exposed to white light emits electrons. For which of the following colours of light, the stopping potential will be maximum?

• 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.
