The frequency of incident light falling on a photosensitive material is doubled. The kinetic energy $(K.E.)$ of the emitted photoelectrons will be:

If the frequency of light falling on a photosensitive material doubles, which of the following is true?

Assertion : In the process of photoelectric emission, all emitted electrons do not have the same kinetic energy.
Reason : If radiation falling on the photosensitive surface of a metal consists of different wavelengths, then the energy acquired by electrons absorbing photons of different wavelengths shall be different.
