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
A radioactive nucleus of mass M emits a photon of frequency νν and the nucleus recoils. The recoil energy will be:
1. h2ν2/2 Mc2h2ν2/2 Mc2
2. zero
3. hνν
4. Mc2-hνMc2−hν
Photoelectric emission occurs only when the incident light has more than a certain minimum
1. wavelength
2. intensity
3. frequency
4. power
