dual-nature-of-radiation-and-matter Question 21
Question: Q. 4. The following graph shows the variation of photocurrent for a photosensitive metal :
(i) Identify the variable $X$ on the horizontal axis.
(ii) What does the point $A$ on the horizontal axis represent?
(iii) Draw this graph for three different values of frequencies of incident radiation $v_{1}, v_{2}$ and $v_{3}\left(v_{1}\right.$ $>v_{2}>v_{3}$ ) for same intensity.
(iv) Draw this graph for three different values of intensities of incident radiation $I_{1}, I_{2}$ and $I_{3}\left(I_{1}>\right.$ $I_{2}>I_{3}$ ) having same frequency.
