Solution:
According to photoelectric effect, the number of electrons ejected is proportional to the intensity of radiation. Thus on increasing the intensity of radiation, the value of photoelectric current also increases, i.e. photoelectric current ∝ intensity of radiation. Hence, its graph would be linear.
