Ques. 1AIPMT 2006

A photocell employs photoelectric effect to convert

  1. change in the frequency of light into a change in the electric current
  2. change in the frequency of light into a change in electric voltage
  3. change in the intensity of illumination into a change in photoelectric current
  4. change in the intensity of illumination into a change in the work function of the photocathode.

Answer

(3) change in the intensity of illumination into a change in photoelectric current

Solution

As per NCERT, the photoelectric current is directly proportional to the intensity of incident light (above threshold frequency), while the work function is a property of the metal.

∴ A photocell converts a change in intensity of illumination into a change in photoelectric current.

Answer: (3)
