Detailed Solution
As the wavelength increases, energy decreases. Hence, electrons may emit or may not emit depending on threshold wavelength. If electrons are emitted they shall have less kinetic energy, hence stopping potential decreases. As the intensity has is same, if electrons emit, the photo electric current do not change.
