The figure shows the variation of photocurrent with anode potential for four different radiations. Let $f_a$,$f_b$,$f_c$ and $f_d$ be the frequencies for the curves $a$,$b$,$c$ and $d$ respectively.

  • A
    $f_a > f_b > f_c > f_d$
  • B
    $f_a < f_b < f_c < f_d$
  • C
    $f_a > f_b < f_c = f_d$
  • D
    $f_a = f_b > f_c > f_d$
