When a certain metallic surface is illuminated with monochromatic light of wavelength $\lambda$,the stopping potential for photoelectric current is $4 V_0$. When the same surface is illuminated with light of wavelength $3 \lambda$,the stopping potential is $V_0$. The threshold wavelength for this surface for the photoelectric effect is
