Two separate monochromatic light beams A...

Two separate monochromatic light beams A and B of the same intensity are falling normally on a unit area of a metallic surface. Their wave lengths are `lamda_(A)` and `lamda_(B)`, respectively. Assuming that all the incident light is used in ejecting the photoelectrons the ratio of the photoelectrons from the beam A to that from B is :

A

`(lamda_(A)//lamda_(B))^(2)`

B

`(lamda_(B)//lamda_(A))^(2)`

C

`(lamda_(A)//lamda_(B))`

D

`(lamda_(B)//lamda_(A))1`
