The question given below consist of an assertion (A) and a reason ( R). Use the following key to choose the appropriate answer to these questions from the codes (a), (b), ( c) and (d) given below: (a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A. (b) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A. (c) A is true but R is false. (d) A is false and R is also false. Assertion: Kinetic energy of photo electrons emitted by a photosensitive surface depends upon the intensity of incident photon. Reason: The ejection of electrons from metallic surface is possible with frequency of incident photon below the threshold frequency.
