Q17.In a photoelectric effect experiment a light of frequency 1 . 5 times the threshold frequency is made to fall on the surface of photosensitive material. Now if the frequency is halved and intensity is doubled, the number of photo electrons emitted will be: (1) Doubled (2) Quadrupled (3) Zero (4) Halved

What This Question Tests

This question tests the conceptual understanding of the photoelectric effect, particularly how changing the frequency and intensity of incident light affects electron emission.

Concepts Tested

Threshold frequencyEffect of frequency on photoelectric emissionEffect of intensity on photoelectric current

Formulas Used

E = hf

hf > hfโ‚€ for electron emission
