When light falls on a metal surface, the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photo-electrons depends upon

(1) The time for which light falls on the metal

(2) Frequency of the incident light

(3) Intensity of the incident light

(4) Velocity of the incident light

The electrons are emitted in the photoelectric effect from a metal surface 

(1) Only if the frequency of the incident radiation is above a certain threshold value

(2) Only if the temperature of the surface is high

(3) At a rate that is independent of the nature of the metal

(4) With a maximum velocity proportional to the frequency of the incident radiation
