Question
For question two statements are given-one labelled Assertion (A) and the other labelled Reason (R). Select the correct answer to these questions front the codes (a), (b), (c) and (d) as given below.
  1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
  2. Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
  3. A is true but R is false.
  4. A is false and R is also false.
Assertion (A): Work function of aluminium is 4.2eV. Emission of electrons will not be possible if two photons each of energy 2.5eV strike an electron of aluminium.
Reason (R): For photoelectric emission the energy of each photon should be greater than the work function of aluminium.

Answer

  1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Explanation:

This is because the probability is very low for two photons of energy 2.5eV making a collision with the same electron in the metal simultaneously.

Assertion: If the length of the conductor is doubled, the drift velocity will become half of the original value (keeping potential difference unchanged).
Reason: At constant potential difference, drift velocity is inversely proportional to the length of the conductor.
Assertion (A): In process of photoelectric emission, all emitted electrons do not have same kinetic energy.
Reason (R): If radiation falling on the photosensitive surface of metal consists of different wavelengths then energy acquired by electrons absorbing photons of different wavelengths shall be different.
