A

there is a minimum frequency below which no photoelctrons are emitted

B

the maximum kinetic energy of photoelctrons depends only on the frequency of light and is independent of intensity.

C

even when the metal surface is illuminated with very small intensity the photoelectrons ( if `v gt v_(th)`) leave the surface immediately

D

electric charge of the phtoelectrons is quantized

    photoelectric effect supports quantion nuture of light because

    Statement-1 : Photoelectric effect supports the particle nature of light. That means light is not a wave in this case. Statement-2 : The particle nature and the wave nature of light coexist, what we feel is the nature that is dominating at a particular situation.

    Which of the following experiment in Photoelectric effect will support particle nature of light ?

    Assertion : The threshold frequency of photoelectric effect supports the particle nature of light. Reason : If frequency of incident light is less than the threshold frequency, electrons are not emitted from metal surface.
