QAIPMT-2009-Ph-2161: NEET 2009 Physics - Class 12 AIPMT-2009-Ph-2161 Solution: The figure shows a plot of photo current versus anode potential …

The figure shows a plot of photo current versus anode potential for a photo sensitive surface for three different radiations. Which one of the following is a correct statement?

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Curves (a) and (b) represent incident radiations of same frequency but of different intensities.
  • B Curves (b) and (c) represent incident radiations of different frequencies and different intensities.
  • C Curves (b) and (c) represent incident radiations of same frequency having same intensity.
  • D Curves (a) and (b) represent incident radiations of different frequencies and different intensities

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Retarding potential depends on the frequency of incident radiation but is independent of intensity.
