The collector plate in an experiment on the photoelectric effect is kept vertically above the emitter plate. A light source is put on and a saturation photocurrent is recorded. When an electric field is switched on that has a vertically downward direction, then:

1. the photocurrent will increase.
2. the kinetic energy of the electrons will increase.
3. the stopping potential will decrease.
4. the threshold wavelength will increase.
