Light of frequency 1.5 times the threshold frequency is incident on a photosensitive material. If the frequency is halved and the intensity is doubled, the photoelectric current becomes

Assertion: Light of frequency 1.5 times the threshold frequency is incident on photo-senstive material. If the frequency is halved and intensity is doubled, the photo current remains unchanged. Reason: The photo electric current varies directely with the intensity of light and frequncy of light.
