If the intensity of light falling on the emitting substance of a photoelectric cell be increased then what will be the effect on (i) current flowing from the cell, (ii) potential difference required to stop the current completely?

Explanation

(i) On increasing the intensity of the incident light, the number of photoelectric current will increase. (ii) Since, the stopping potential is independent of the intensity of the incident light but depends on the frequency of the incident light, hence the stopping potential will remain unchanged.
