Light of wavelength $4000 \ \mathring A$ is incident on a sodium surface,where the threshold wavelength for photoemission is $5420 \ \mathring A$. The work function of sodium is ............ $eV$.

Assertion : Photoelectric saturation current increases with the increase in frequency of incident light.
Reason : Energy of incident photons increases with increase in frequency and as a result photoelectric current increases.

In the photoelectric effect,assuming the energy of a photon is proportional to its frequency and is completely absorbed by an electron in the metal,the photoelectric current...
