When two monochromatic lights of frequency $v$ and $\frac{v}{2}$ are incident on a photoelectric metal,their stopping potentials are $\frac{V_{s}}{2}$ and $V_{s}$ respectively. The threshold frequency for this metal is:

  • A
    $3v$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3}v$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{2}v$
  • D
    $2v$
