In a photoelectric effect experiment, electrons emerge from a copper surface with a maximum kinetic energy of 1.10 eV when light shines on the surface. The work function of copper is 4.65 eV.
 
  Which one of the following values is closest to the wavelength of the light? (h = 6.626  10-34 J  s, c = 3.00  108 m/s, 1 eV = 1.60  10-19 J)
  A) 360 nm B) 150 nm C) 1100 nm D) 220 nm
