Light of wavelength 330 nm330\,\mathrm{nm} falling on a metal ejects electrons that require a stopping potential V0V_0. In the same setup, light of wavelength 220 nm220\,\mathrm{nm} ejects electrons that require a stopping potential 2V02V_0. The numerical value of V0V_0 is (1) 1615 V\frac{16}{15}\,\mathrm{V} (2) 1516 V\frac{15}{16}\,\mathrm{V} (3) 158 V\frac{15}{8}\,\mathrm{V} (4) 815 V\frac{8}{15}\,\mathrm{V}
