In the Davisson and Germer experiment, the velocity of electrons emitted from the electron gun can be increased by:
1. | increasing the filament current. |
2. | decreasing the filament current. |
3. | decreasing the potential difference between the anode and filament. |
4. | increasing the potential difference between the anode and filament. |
