The electrons in the Mercury arc current in the tube causes the mercury vapor to emit ultraviolet light. The inside surface of the tube is coated with a phosphor that glows with visible light when hit by ultraviolet light.

Starter is asmall device in a fluroscent tube light to start the ciruit. Once lit, starting circuit cuts off automatically
it will not glow
Lee De Forest invented the electron tube in 1906.
Will an electron excite if it is given energy that will allow it to exist in between two energy levels? No An electron can only exist in specific energy levels. Giving an electron more energy can make it escape from the attraction of the protons completely and the atom now has 1 less electron and is a +1 ion. Have you seen an electron discharge tube? If I turn up the power, the tube will become brighter, but the color will not change. The color of light is the product of the electron returning from the excited state to its ground state.

Yes because it glows when it glows the tube expands to create space for it to glow
You get a tube and fill it with glowey stuff thers your answer
greenish glow or fluorescence
anode
Yes they are the same. A cathode ray tube (CRT) uses an electron gun to "shoot" electrons from the cathode to specific positions on the anode of the CRT.
The previous generation of televisions were known as CRT televisions. CRT stands for cathode ray tube. The tube sent a stream of electrons from the back of the tube to the front phosphor coated glass face. The electrons caused the phosphors to glow according to the intensity of the electron beam.
The electrons emitted from cathode hit the glass of the tube, causing it to fluoresce.
