Assertion:The released electron is referred to as a photoelectron.
Reason:The current so produced is called photoelectric current
If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of assertion
If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
If assertion is true and reason is false
If assertion is false and reason is true
A) If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
Explanation:
The electrons ejected due to photoelectric effect is called photoelectrons.the current produced as a result of the ejected electrons is called photoelectric current. Photoelectrons are those electrons which are produced when an energetic photon of radiation strike a molecule and the analysis of the spectrum of energies.when photoelectron emitted from a non conductive sample a positive charge accumulates on the surface changing the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons as they leave.
