The photoelectric threshold wavelength of a certain metal is $3000 \mathring{A}$. If the radiation of $2000 \mathring{A}$ is incident on the metal,then:

  • A
    Electrons will be emitted
  • B
    Positrons will be emitted
  • C
    Protons will be emitted
  • D
    Electrons will not be emitted
