The work functions of three metals $A, B$ and $C$ are $W_A, W_B$ and $W_C$ respectively. They are in decreasing order $(W_A > W_B > W_C)$. The correct graph between the maximum kinetic energy $E_k$ of the emitted electron and the frequency $v$ of the incident radiation is:

The work function of a metal surface is $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ J}$. When light of wavelength $6400 \ \mathring{A}$ is incident on this surface,the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is ....... $\text{J}$.
