$A$ beam of light of wavelength $\lambda$ falls on a metal having work function $\phi$ placed in a magnetic field $B$. The most energetic electrons, moving perpendicular to the field, are bent in circular arcs of radius $R$. If the experiment is performed for different values of $\lambda$, then the $B^2$ vs. $\frac{1}{\lambda}$ graph will look like (keeping all other quantities constant):

  • A
