Consider a beam of electrons (each electron with energy \(E_0\)) incident on a metal surface kept in an evacuated chamber. Then:

1. no electrons will be emitted as only photons can emit electrons.
2. electrons can be emitted but all with energy, \(E_0.\)
3. electrons can be emitted with any energy, with a maximum of \({E}_0-\phi\) (\(\phi\) is the work function).
4. electrons can be emitted with any energy, with a maximum \(E_0.\)
