Question

Which of the following statement is correct? (A) The photocurrent increases with intensity of light (B) The stopping potential increases with increase of incident light (C) The current in photocell increases with increasing frequency (D) The photocurrent is proportional to the applied voltage.

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Since the emission of photoelectrons is directly proportional to the intensity of the incident light, therefore photocurrent increases with the intensity of light.
