When photons of energy $hv$ fall on a metal plate of work function $W_0$,photoelectrons of maximum kinetic energy $K$ are ejected. If the frequency of the radiation is doubled,the maximum kinetic energy of the ejected photoelectrons will be

  • A
    $K+W_0$
  • B
    $K+hv$
  • C
    $K$
  • D
    $2K$
