Why photoelectric effect cannot be explained on the basis of wave nature of light?

Answer»

The wave nature of radiation cannot explain the following : 

(i). The instantaneous ejection of photoelectrons 

(ii). The existence of threshold frequency for a metal surface. 

(iii). The fact that kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is independent of the intensity of the incident light but depends upon the frequency of the incident light.
