When light of wavelength $300 \ nm$ falls on a photoelectric emitter,photoelectrons are just liberated. For another emitter,light of wavelength $600 \ nm$ is just sufficient for liberating photoelectrons. The ratio of the work function of the two emitters is

  • A
    $1 : 2$
  • B
    $2 : 1$
  • C
    $4 : 1$
  • D
    $1 : 4$
