Assertion : Photoelectric saturation current increases with the increase in frequency of incident light.
Reason : Energy of incident photons increases with increase in frequency and as a result photoelectric current increases.

One milliwatt of light of wavelength $4560\ \mathring A $ is incident on a cesium surface of work function $1.9\  eV$. Given that quantum efficiency of photoelectric emission is $0.5\%$. Planck's constant $h = 6.62 \times 10^{-34}\  J-s$, velocity of light $= 3 \times 10^8\  ms^{-1}$, the corresponding photo electric current is
