Light of wavelength 3500Å is incident on two metals A and B whose work functions are 3.2 eV and 1.9 eV respectively. Which metal will emit photoelectrons

When a high frequency electromagnetic radiation is incident on a metallic surface, electrons are emitted from the surface. Energy of emitted photoelectrons depends only on the frequency of incident electromagnetic radiation and the number of emitted electrons depends only on the intensity of incident light. Einstein's protoelectron equation [K_(max)=hv-phi} correctly ecplains the PE, where upsilon= frequency of incident light and phi= work function. Q.
