What else can I help you with?
Was the cathode ray slower than the speed of light?
No, the cathode ray is faster than the speed of light.
How do scientists detect cathode rays?
Cathode rays are found in vacuum tubes. Scientists are able to view them when they are a negative cathode because they emit a light and can glow.
Which gas is used in discharge tube for the study of cathode rays?
The gas commonly used in discharge tubes for the study of cathode rays is low-pressure neon or argon. These gases allow for the observation of cathode rays because they ionize easily and produce visible light when the cathode rays collide with them. This ionization helps to create observable effects that demonstrate the properties of cathode rays, such as their trajectory and charge.
Is a cathode-ray tube and an iconoscope the same thing?
No. A cathode ray tube uses cathode rays to (among other things) scan a phospher and generate an image. An iconoscope is similar, in that its uses cathode rays to scan, but it scans a light sensitive area so, instead of generating an image, the iconoscope scans an image. It is a television camera, instead of a television set, so to speak.
What was Thompson working with when he discovered the cathode rays?
Thomson discovered cathode rays when he was working with electrons. He was performing experiments with the electrons when one of them became electrically charged and a beam of light came from it, this creating a cathode ray.
Cathode rays were shown to be a stream of?
Cathode rays are electrons.
Cathode rays were found to be made of protons.?
Cathode rays are electrons.
What are the uses of Cathode Rays and Anode Rays?
cathode rays can emit electrons anode can collect them
What is the modern day name for cathode rays?
Cathode rays are electron beams.
What is modern name for cathode rays?
A modern day name for cathode rays is an electrons.
In cathode ray tube cathode and anode rays travel opposite to each other but they are not neutralized. why?
There is no such thing as anode rays. The cathode rays (aka electron beam) just travels from cathode to anode.
What did experiments with cathode rays lead to the discovery of what?
experiments with cathode rays lead to the discovery of the Electron.
