Oscilloscopes only measure voltage over time. Current cannot be measured with an Oscilloscope directly, but can be measured indirectly. Measure the voltage across a known load and calculate the current.
The cathode space charge is determined by the voltage on the filament.
Inside the diode valve the conventional curret flow is from anode to cathode. The electron flow is from cathode to anode.
define the maximum value of an ac wave form
With a 10mA forward bias current, if the voltages at the anode and cathode of a diode in a circuit are found to be the same, then the diode most likely to be shorted.
you can measure ac using a cathode ray oscilloscope. it will project a sinusodial waveform, showing that the current is in the positive direction in the first half and the opposite direction in the second half
An oscilloscope is, essentially, a voltmeter -it measures current by measuring the voltage drop caused by that current across a standard resistance.
A standard oscilloscope is designed to measure voltage, you need a current probe for your oscilloscope to measure current.
The meaning of the word oscilloscope is a device used for viewing oscillations, electrical current or voltage or, with a display on the screen of a cathode-ray tube.
An oscilloscope is a device that views electrical current or other oscillations on a cathode ray tube screen. A compression wave, meanwhile, is a type of wave that forms rarefaction when it moves down a channel.
Oscilloscopes only measure voltage over time. Current cannot be measured with an Oscilloscope directly, but can be measured indirectly. Measure the voltage across a known load and calculate the current.
Cathode ray oscilloscope(CRO) is a device used to see the voltage across a particular element of your circuit and the wave form can also be seen on CRO. But you actually cannot measure the current using CRO as it is meant to give the voltage levels across any element in eletrically enegized circuit. however Digital Multimeter can do this job. But while using DMM to measure current one thing should be kept in mind that your circuit should be linear so that if you break the circuit to find current in series the current could not change in circuit.

A: To partially eliminate the problems with cathode current hugging
If you are referring to an a.c. current, then the maximum current is the amplitude of its waveform. For a sinusoidal waveform, the amplitude of an a.c. current is its root-mean-square value, divided by 0.707. For example, an a.c current with an rms value of, say, 10 A will have an amplitude of 14.14 A,
