उत्तर
will remain unchanged
Cut off wavelength is given by `lambda_min = (hc)/(eV)`,
where h = Planck's constant
c = speed of light
e = charge on an electron
V = potential difference applied to the tube
Clearly, the cutoff wavelength does not depend on the current in the circuit and temperature of the filament.
