Electrons ejected from the surface of a metal,when light of a certain frequency is incident on it,are stopped fully by a retarding potential of $3 \ V$. The photoelectric effect on this metallic surface begins at a frequency of $6 \times 10^{14} \ s^{-1}$. The frequency of the incident light in $s^{-1}$ is: [Planck's constant $= 6.4 \times 10^{-34} \ J \cdot s$,charge on the electron $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$]

  • A
    $7.5 \times 10^{13}$
  • B
    $13.5 \times 10^{13}$
  • C
    $13.5 \times 10^{14}$
  • D
    $7.5 \times 10^{15}$
