Dual Nature Of Light Question 20
Question: Assertion : Though light of a single frequency (monochromatic) is incident on a metal, the energies of emitted photoelectrons are different. Reason : The energy of electrons emitted from inside the metal surface is lost in collision with the other atoms in the metal.
Options:
A) If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
B) If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
C) If assertion is true but reason is false.
