    1 Mark Questions
    Directions: These questions consist of two statements, each printed as Assertion and Reason.
    While answering these questions, you are required to choose any one of the following four
    responses.
    (a) If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the
    Assertion.
    (b) If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the
    Assertion.
    (c)If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
    (d) If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
    I If the Assertion is false but Reason is correct

    Q.40 Assertion: When the speed of an electron increases its specific charge decreases.
    Reason: Specific charge is the ratio of the charge to mass.
    Q.41 Assertion: Photosensitivity of a metal is high if its work function is small.
    Reason: Work function =hf0, where f0 is the threshold frequency. [AIIMS 1997]

    energies of emitted photoelectrons are different.
    Reason: The energy of electrons emitted from inside the metal surface, is lost in collision with the
    other atoms in the metal.

    metal surface have a spread in their kinetic energies.
    ReasonI: The energy of electrons emitted from inside the metal surface, is lost in collision with
    the other atoms in the metal. (CBSE Sample paper 2022)

    CASE STUDY BASED QUESTIONS

    Q.52 Lenard observed that when ultraviolet radiations were allowed to fall on the emitter plate of
    an evacuated glass tube, enclosing two electrodes (metal plates), current started flowing in the
    circuit connecting the plates. As soon as the ultraviolet radiations were stopped, the current flow

    also stopped. These observations proved that it was ultraviolet radiations, falling on the emitter
    plate, that ejected some charged particles from the emitter and the positive plate attracted them.
