The figure shows the variation of photocurrent with anode potential for a photo-sensitive surface for three different radiations. Let Ia,Ib and Ic be the intensities and fa,fb and fc be the frequencies for the curves a, b and c respectively. Then-

1. fa=fb  and IaIb 
2. fa=fc and Ia=Ic
3. fa=fb and Ia=Ic
4. fa=fb  and Ia=Ib

The stopping potential as a function of the frequency of the incident radiation is plotted for two different photoelectric surfaces \(A\) and \(B\). The graphs demonstrate that \(A\)'s work function is:

           

1. Greater than that of \(B\). 2. Smaller than that of \(B\).
3. Equal to that of \(B\). 4. No inference can be drawn about their work functions from the given graphs.
