Which one of the following statements is true if the intensity of a light beam is increased while its frequency is kept the same? a) The photons gain higher speeds. b) 'The energy of the photons is increased. c) The number of photons per unit time is increased. d) The wavelength of the light is increased.
Which of the following statements is false? a. As the wavelength of a photon decreases, its energy increases. b. The speed of a photon increases as its wavelength decreases. c. Light can be viewed as packets of energy. d. As the frequency of a photon increases, its energy increases. e. A high-energy photon has a wavelength shorter than that of a low-energy photon.

All of the following statements about the photoelectric effect are true EXCEPT: A. the intensity of the light beam does not affect the photocurrent. B. the kinetic energies of the emitted electrons do not depend on the light intensity. C. a weak beam of light of frequency greater than the threshold frequency yields more current than an intense beam of light of frequency lower than the threshold frequency. D. for light of a given frequency, the kinetic energy of emitted electrons increases as the value of the work function decreases.
