Ddischarge tube led to the discovery of Cathode rays (electrons) and Positive rays (protons) so this discovery of cathode rays and positive rays can be considered as conse quences of discharge tube.
The cathode ray is a stream of electrons.
J.J Thomson conducted the cathode-ray tube experiment in 1911.
His cathode ray experiment suggested that atoms are not indivisible and that they contain negatively charged particles called electrons, embedded in a positively charged substance within the atom. It was called the plum pudding model.
Filament heats a cathode until it gives off electrons.
Dalton performed the cathode ray experiment.
Dalton performed the cathode ray experiment.
The cathode ray experiment helped discover electrons
J. J. ThomsonJ. J. Thomson did the cathode ray experiment where he discovered the existence of electrons.
Cathode Rays
homson conducted a series of experiments with cathode rays and cathode ray tubes leading him to the discovery of electrons and subatomic particles. Thomson used the cathode ray tube in three different experiments.

There were no technologies. The atom was discovered by the ancient Greek's. They figured that eventually if you kept on dividing something, it would get so small that you wouldn't be able to divide it anymore. There would be just one tiny particle left. They called this particle the atom. Of course over time the atom proved not to be the smallest particle with the discovery of the proton, electron and neutron.
Thomson set out to prove that the cathode rays produced from the cathode were actually a stream of negatively charged particles called electrons.
because Thomson saw the ray move from the cathode to the anode so the particles have negatively charge
J.J. Thomson used cathode ray tubes to prove the existence of electrons.
It indicated that all matter contained electrons.
