Statement $(I)$ : By increasing the potential difference between cathode and anode continuously in a photoelectric experiment,the photocurrent always increases continuously.
Statement $(II)$ : If two photons $A$ and $B$ of energies $2.5 \ eV$ and $3.5 \ eV$ respectively fall on a metal surface of work function $2.0 \ eV$,then the ratio of maximum kinetic energies emitted between $A$ and $B$ is $3$.
Statement $(III)$ : The maximum energy needed by an electron to come out from metal surface is called the work function of the metal.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

In a photoelectric effect experiment,three different metal plates $p, q,$ and $r$ have work functions $\phi_p = 2.0 \ eV, \phi_q = 2.5 \ eV,$ and $\phi_r = 3.0 \ eV$. The incident light beams have wavelengths $\lambda_p = 550 \ nm, \lambda_q = 450 \ nm,$ and $\lambda_r = 350 \ nm$. The intensity of light is the same for each plate. The correct $I-V$ graph for the experiment is: $[hc = 1240 \ eV \ nm]$

Assertion: The specific charge of positive rays is not constant.
Reason: The mass of ions varies with speed.
