A photocell is receiving light from a source placed at a distance of 1 m. If the same source is placed at a distance of 2 m, then the ejected electron:

1. moves with one-fourth of energy as that of the initial energy.
2. moves with one-fourth of momentum as that of the initial momentum.
3. will be half in number.
4. will be one-fourth in number.
