Q.

Parallel beam of photons of light intensity I and frequency f are incident on a conducting  sphere A of radius r which is connected to another conducting sphere B of radius R at a  large distance by a highly conducting wire through an ideal ammeter as shown. Work  function of sphere A is w[w<hf] & radiation is incident only on A. If the photo electric  efficiency is k/100 and all the incident photons are absorbed by the sphere then choose  correct options

Detailed Solution

Number of photons incident over time t  Ni=IπR2thf
Number of electrons emitted in time t Ne=k100IπR2thf
Total charge on A & B in a time t  QA+QB=Nee=ek100IπR2thfAμOQAr=Q3R;QB=RR+rNee 
Reading of ammeter is  dQ3dt=RR+rekIπR2100hf
