Question

As the intensity of incident light increases

  1. Photoelectric current increases    
  2. Photoelectric current decreases    
  3. Kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons increases    
  4. Kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons decreases    

The correct answer is: Photoelectric current increases


    Intensity increases means more photons of same energy will emit more electrons of same energy, hence only photoelectric current increases.
