Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R : Assertion A: In the photoelectric effect, the electrons are ejected from the metal surface as soon as the beam of light of frequency greater than threshold frequency strikes the surface. Reason R : When the photon of any energy strikes an electron in the atom, transfer of energy from the photon to the electron take

Options

  1. ABoth A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A
  2. BA is correct but R is not correct
  3. CBoth A and R are correct but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
  4. DA is not correct but R is correct

Correct answer

B. A is correct but R is not correct

Step-by-step solution

The threshold frequency is the minimum frequency required for emission of electrons from the outermost shell. The light with frequencies lower than threshold would not eject photoelectrons from the shell of an atom. As for the emission kinetic energy of an electron should be greater than or equal to zero. Hence, the photoelectric emission will take place only when the energy of a photon is greater than the energy possessed by the electron. Atoms are ionised resulting in transfer of energy when photons of sufficient
