A photocell is placed at 1 m distance from light source when distance is changed to (1)/(2)m no.of photoelectron emitted from cathode will come

Answer»

become 2 times
decreases by factor of 2
becomes 4 times
decreases by factor of 4

Solution :`"intensity" prop(1)/(("distance from SOURCE ")^(2)) `
`THEREFORE I prop (1)/(d^(2)) therefore (I_(2))/(I_(1))=((d_(1))/(d_(2)))^(2)`
From `d_(2)=(d_(1))/(2)`
`(I_(2))/(I_(1))=(2)^(2)=4` intensity becomes four times.
