A current passes through a resistor. Let K1 and K2 represent the average kinetic energy of the conduction electrons and the metal ions respectively.
1. K1 < K2
2. K1 = K2
3. K1 > K2
4. Any of these three may occur
The electrons are emitted by a hot filament and are accelerated by an electric field as shown in the figure. The two stops at the left ensure that the electron beam has a uniform cross-section.
