    Light of frequency 1.5 times the threshold frequency is incident on a photo-sensitive 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.

    In photoelectric effect experiment, on increasing the intensity of incident light the photoelectric current
