Photoelectrons are emitted with maximum velocity $v$ when light of frequency $3f$ is incident on a photosensitive material of work function $2hf$. If the frequency of the incident light is $4.25f$,the maximum velocity of the emitted photoelectrons is ($h$ = Planck's constant).

  • A
    $0.5v$
  • B
    $v$
  • C
    $1.5v$
  • D
