    If the distance of 100 W lamp is increased from a photocell, the saturation current i in the photocell varies with the distance d as

    A) \[i\propto {{d}^{2}}\]

    B) \[i\propto d\]   

    C)  \[i\propto \frac{1}{d}\]                

    D)         \[i\propto \frac{1}{{{d}^{2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Photoelectric current depends on the intensity of incident radiation, ie, \[i\propto I\] But, Intensity of radiation, \[I\propto \frac{1}{{{d}^{2}}}\] \[\therefore \]                  \[i\propto \frac{1}{{{d}^{2}}}\]
