In photoelectric effect, electrons are ejected from metals,

if the incident light has a certain minimum

(a) wavelength (b) frequency

(c) amplitude (d) angle of incidence


Answer: (b) The minimum frequency above which the electrons

are ejected from the metal surface, is called the

threshold frequency for that metal. No electrons are

emitted if the frequency of the incident light is less

than the threshold frequency
