$A$ certain metallic surface is illuminated with monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$. The stopping potential for the photoelectric current for this light is $3V_0$. If the same surface is illuminated with light of wavelength $2\lambda$,the stopping potential is $V_0$. The threshold wavelength for this surface for the photoelectric effect is:

  • A
    $4\lambda$
  • B
    $\frac{\lambda}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{\lambda}{6}$
  • D
    $6\lambda$
