The Fig shows a plot of three curves a, b, c showing the variation of photocurrent versis collector plate potential for the different intensities `I_1, I_2 and I_3` having frequencies `v_1, v_2 and v_3` respectively, incident on a photosensitive surface. Point out the two curves for which the incident radiation have same frequency but different intensities.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Since the value of stopping potential is same for curves a and b and have different saturation current, hence frequency `v_1 and v_2` are the same but their intensities are different.
