Answer

$\therefore \text d) \lambda _2\gt \lambda _1\gt \lambda _3$ is the right option

Work Step by Step

$\lambda _1$, $\lambda _2$, $\lambda _3$ are the three wavelengths of light $$\lambda \propto \frac{1}{Energy(E)}$$ Since, Kinetic Energies of the three lights are as Follows $\lambda _1$ : $2.9\times 10^{-20}J$ $\lambda _2$ : ${0}J$ $\lambda _1$ : $4.2\times 10^{-19}J$ $\therefore \lambda _2\gt \lambda _1\gt \lambda _3$
