4) experiments with cathode ray tubes

Explanation:

when sufficiently high voltage is applied across the electrods, current starts flowing through a stream of particles moving in the tube the negative electrode (cathode) to the positive electrode (anode). These were called Cathode Rays or Cathode Ray Particles
