Light of incident frequency $3$ times the threshold frequency is incident on a photosensitive material. If the incident frequency is made $\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{\text{th}}$ and intensity is tripled,then the photoelectric current will

  • A
    increase
  • B
    decrease
  • C
    be $\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{\text{rd}}$
  • D
    be zero
