Pick the wrong statement of the following.

a
Photoelectric current increases with increase in accelerating potential until it becomes maximum value.
b
High voltage spark passed across electrodes in a discharge tube if they are illuminated by ultraviolet light.
c
To study the effect of potential on photo-electric current, we first maintain collector at positive potential with respect to emitter.
d
The maximum negative potential given to collector for which photoelectric current becomes zero is  called stopping potential.

detailed solution

Correct option is D

The stopping potential is the minimum negative potential applied to collector w.r.t emitter for which photocurrent becomes zero
