Light of frequency 8.0×1014 Hz8.0\times10^{14}\,\text{Hz} (greater than the threshold frequency of a given metal) is incident on its surface at two different intensities I1I_1 and I2I_2 where I2=2I1I_2 = 2I_1. On the same set of axes, sketch the photocurrent versus applied potential curves for the two intensities. Label each curve and mark the saturation current and stopping potential for both cases.
