Analyzing +4 | -1

Assertion : Photodiode & photovoltaic cell are based on the same principle.

Reason : Both use same method of operations to work.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

If Assertions is True but the reason is False

Option C is correct. While both photodiode and photovoltaic cells use semiconductors and p-n junctions, they operate on different principles. Photodiodes are typically reverse biased and detect light, while photovoltaic cells generate voltage from light.
