When monochromatic light is incident on a photosensitive surface,the number of photoelectrons emitted per second from the surface is $n$ and the maximum kinetic energy is $K_{max}$. If the intensity of the incident light is doubled,then...

  • A
    $n$ and $K_{max}$ will both be doubled.
  • B
    $n$ and $K_{max}$ will both be halved.
  • C
    The value of $n$ will be doubled,but the value of $K_{max}$ will remain the same.
  • D
    The value of $K_{max}$ will be doubled,but the value of $n$ will remain the same.
