The threshold frequency of a metal is $F_0$. When light of frequency $2F_0$ is incident on the metal plate,the maximum velocity of the photoelectrons is $V_1$. When the frequency of incident radiation is increased to $5F_0$,the maximum velocity of the photoelectrons emitted is $V_2$. The ratio of $V_1$ to $V_2$ is:

  • A
    $1:8$
  • B
    $1:16$
  • C
    $1:4$
  • D
    $1:2$
