Question:

A gold cathode is illuminated with light of wavelength \(250 \mathrm{~nm}\). It is found that the current is zero when \(\Delta V=1.0 \mathrm{~V}\). Would the current change if

a. The light intensity is doubled?

b. The anode-cathode potential difference is increased to \(\Delta V=5.5 \mathrm{~V} ?\)
