Homework Statement
This has to do with a simple photoelectric effect setup:
If there is no current, would increasing the frequency of the light result in at least some current?
If there is some current, would increasing the frequency result in a maximum current?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
So I was thinking that I know that changing the frequency results in a change of the stopping voltage. A higher frequency means a greater stopping voltage and a smaller frequency means a smaller stopping voltage. So if there is no current, wouldn't increasing the frequency give at least some current from this reasoning.
Secondly, if there is some current, then increasing the frequency will not result in a maximum current.
Is this correct?
