CBSE Class 12-science Answered
In a plot of
photoelectric current versus anode potential, how does
(i) the saturation current vary with anode
potential for incident radiations of different frequencies but same
intensity?
(ii) the stopping potential vary for
incident radiations of different intensities but same frequency?
(iii) Photoelectric current vary for
different intensities but same frequency of incident radiations?
Justify your answer in each case.

Expert Answer
(i) Saturation current is same for incident radiations of different frequencies but of same intensity. It does not change with increase in anode potential.
(ii) Stopping potential is same for incident radiation of different intensities but same frequency. This is because stopping potential depends on frequency and not on the intensity of incident radiation.
(iii) Photoelectric current increases linearly with the intensity of incident radiation of same frequency.
