Statement-1 : When ultraviolet light is ...

Statement-1 : When ultraviolet light is incidient on a photocell, its stopping potential is `V_(0)` and the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is `K_(max)`. When the ultraviolet light is replaced by X-rays, both `V_(0)` and `K_(max)` increase.
Statement-2 : Photoelectrons are emitted with speeds ranging from zero to a maximum value because of the rangeg of frequencies present in the incident light.

A
