A point source of light is used in a photoelectric effect. If the source is removed farther from the emitting metal, then the stopping potential will
Options
- Aincrease.
- Bdecrease.
- Cremain constant.
- Deither increase or decrease.
Correct answer
C. remain constant.
Step-by-step solution
As the source is removed farther from the emitting metal, the intensity of light will decrease. As stopping potential does not depend on the intensity of light, it will remain constant.
