Assertion (A) : In a Wheatstone bridge circuit, if we interchange the position of the cell and the galvanometer, the balance condition \( \frac{P}{Q} = \frac{R}{S} \) remains unchanged.
Reason (R) : \( \frac{P}{Q} = \frac{R}{S} \Rightarrow \frac{Q}{S} = \frac{P}{R} \) so balance condition remains same.

Assertion (A) : Photoelectric current depends upon the intensity of the incident radiation.
Reason (R) : Stopping potential is independent of the intensity of the incident radiation.
