The dependence of the short wavelength limit on the accelerating potential V is represented by the curve of figure:
1. A
2. B
3. C
4. None of these
The curves (a), (b) (c) and (d) show the variation between the applied potential difference (V) and the photoelectric current (i), at two different intensities of light ( ). In which figure is the correct variation shown ?
Assertion : The energy (E) and momentum (p) of a photon are related by p=E/c .
Reason : The photon behaves like a particle.
Assertion : Photoelectric effect demonstrates the wave nature of light.
Reason : The number of photoelectrons is proportional to the frequency of light.
Assertion : When the speed of an electron increases its specific charge decreases.
Reason : Specific charge is the ratio of the charge to mass.
Assertion : Mass of moving photon varies inversely as the wavelength.
Reason : Energy of the particle = Mass
Assertion : The specific charge of positive rays is not constant.
Reason : The mass of ions varies with speed.
Assertion : Photosensitivity of a metal is high if its work function is small.
Reason : Work function = where is the threshold frequency
Assertion : The de-Broglie wavelength of a molecule varies inversely as the square root of temperature.
Reason : The root mean square velocity of the molecule depends on the temperature.
Assertion : The specific charge for positive rays is a characteristic constant.
Reason : The specific charge depends on charge and mass of positive ions present in positive rays.
