1) As soon as the ultraviolet radiations were stopped, the current flow also stopped These observations indicate that when ultraviolet radiations fall on the emitter plate C, electrons are ejected from it which are attracted towards the positive, collector plate A by the electric field The electrons flow through the evacuated glass tube, resulting in the current flow

As soon as the ultraviolet radiations were stopped, the current flow also stopped These observations indicate that when ultraviolet radiations fall on the emitter plate C, electrons are ejected from it which are attracted towards the positive, collector plate A by the electric field The electrons flow through the evacuated glass tube, resulting in the current flow Thus, light falling on the surface of the emitter causes current in the external circuit
