Photoelectric effect supports quantum nature of light because

A

there is minimum frequency of light below which no photoelectrons are emitted

B

the maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons depends only on the frequency of light and not on its intensity

C

even when the metal surface is faintly illuminated (with frequency more than the threshold frequency ) the photoelectrons leave the surface immediately

D

electric charge of the photoelectrons is quantized

In photoelectric effect

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.

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.
