MCQ
In the photoeletric effect, electrons are emitted:
  • A
    At a rate that is proportional to the amplitude of the incident radiation.
  • B
    With a maximum velocity proportional to the frequency of the incident radiation.
  • C
    At a rate that is independent of the emitter.
  • D
    Only if the frequency of the incident radiations is above a certain threshold value.

Answer

  1. Only if the frequency of the incident radiations is above a certain threshold value.
