Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): The work function of aluminium is \(4.2~\text{eV}\). Emission of electrons will not be possible if two photons, each of energy \(2.5~\text{eV}\), strike an electron of aluminium.
Reason (R): For photoelectric emission, the energy of each photon should be greater than the work function of aluminium.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

Consider a beam of electrons (each electron with energy \(E_0\)) incident on a metal surface kept in an evacuated chamber. Then:

1. no electrons will be emitted as only photons can emit electrons.
2. electrons can be emitted but all with energy, \(E_0.\)
3. electrons can be emitted with any energy, with a maximum of \({E}_0-\phi\) (\(\phi\) is the work function).
4. electrons can be emitted with any energy, with a maximum \(E_0.\)
