Cut-off potentials for a metal in the photoelectric effect for light of wavelengths $\lambda_1$,$\lambda_2$,and $\lambda_3$ are found to be $V_1$,$V_2$,and $V_3$ volts. If $V_1$,$V_2$,and $V_3$ are in Arithmetic Progression,then $\lambda_1$,$\lambda_2$,and $\lambda_3$ will be in:

  • A
    Arithmetic Progression
  • B
    Geometric Progression
  • C
    Harmonic Progression
  • D
    None
