Which one of the following graphs correctly represents the variation of maximum kinetic energy $(E_{k})$ of the emitted electrons with frequency $(\nu)$ of incident light in the photoelectric effect?

If light of wavelength $\lambda_1$ is allowed to fall on a metal,then the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted is $E_1$. If the wavelength of light changes to $\lambda_2$,then the kinetic energy of the electrons changes to $E_2$. Then the work function of the metal is:

The maximum velocity of the photoelectrons emitted from the surface is $v$ when light of frequency $n$ falls on a metal surface. If the incident frequency is increased to $3n$,the maximum velocity of the ejected photoelectrons will be:

The threshold frequency of a photosensitive material is equal to the frequency of the $H_{\alpha}$ line of hydrogen. If a photon whose frequency is equal to the frequency of the $H_{\beta}$ line of hydrogen is incident on this photosensitive material,the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is ($R$ = Rydberg's constant,$h$ = Planck's constant,and $c$ = speed of light in vacuum).

This question has Statement-$1$ and Statement-$2$. Of the four choices given after the statements,choose the one that best describes the two statements.
Statement-$1$: $A$ metallic surface is irradiated by a monochromatic light of frequency $v > v_0$ (the threshold frequency). The maximum kinetic energy and the stopping potential are $K_{max}$ and $V_0$ respectively. If the frequency incident on the surface is doubled,both the $K_{max}$ and $V_0$ are also doubled.
Statement-$2$: The maximum kinetic energy and the stopping potential of photoelectrons emitted from a surface are linearly dependent on the frequency of incident light.
