What is the difference between electron beam and cathod rays?
X ray is light and belongs to the family of electromagnetic waves. It is said to be photon whose rest mass is zero. X ray does not have charge.Electron is considered as particle which has mass, of 9.1 x10 -31 kg.Electrons posses negative charge that equals 1.602 x 10 -19 C
What are the rays in the cathode ray tubepositive or negative or neutral?
The rays produced in a cathode tube in early experiments were actually just streams of electrons. They had a negative charge, which was discovered by JJ Thomson when he placed a magnet next to his cathode ray tube and say the ray bend.
How are cathode rays originated?
its negatively charged particles of matter,Thomson knew that opposites attract but these the positive charged anode,so he reasoned that the paticles must be negatively charged! : )! Wooooo! Go J.J Thomson
Why did the rays move the paddle wheel in cathode ray tube?
momentum of the 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.
Are anode rays emitted from anode?
There are no rays assign as anode rays (cathode rays are there in a discharge tube) but during discharge tube experiment positive rays are observed which are generated by decomposition of gaseous molecules present in the tube. X-rays are produced by striking of cathode rays with anode so x-rays may be called as anode rays.
What are the consequences of discharge tube?
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.
Why anode rays also known as canal rays?
Anode rays are also known as canal rays because they were discovered to be positively charged particles produced in a cathode tube when the cathode rays strike a gas at low pressure. The particles travel in the opposite direction of cathode rays and move towards the anode or positive electrode, hence the name "anode rays."
Why it is necessary to decrease the pressure in discharge tube to get cathode rays?
why it is necessary to decrease the pressure in the discharge tubbe to get cathode rays
Why is it necessary to decrease pressure in the discharge tube to get cathod rays?
why it is necessary to decrease the pressure in the discharge tubbe to get cathode rays
Why is it necessary to decrease the pressure in the discharge tube to get the cathode rays?
cathode rays can't travel in air
The em value of cathode rays is always constant but the em value of positive rays is not constant why?
Anode rays differ from cathode rays in several aspects and their specific charge(charge/mass or e/m ratio) is an important feature. The reason lies in how anode rays are produced. Anode rays are produced when a gas at low pressure is subjected to a high voltage(10,000 Volts). Under these conditions, the atoms of the gas get ionized, i.e. they lose some electrons and thus become cations(positive ions). It is a stream of these positive ions that become 'anode rays'. However, the atomic masses of different gases are different and hence, the mass of anode ray particles varies when you use different gases in the discharge tube and hence, the charge/mass ratio also varies. Whereas, in the case of cathode rays, the cathode ray particles are nothing but electrons. Their charge and mass is constant no matter what gas you use in the discharge tube. So, their charge/mass ratio remains constant. (ANSWER BY RIZWAN FROM PAKISTAN)
What are canal rays?
Canal rays, sometimes called anode rays, were first observed in by Eugen Goldstein in 1886. These rays are streams of positive ions in a rarefied gas and have a higher mass compared to electrons.
How is the formation of anode and cathode rays?
Goldstein used a gas discharge tube which had a perforated cathode. When a high electrical potential of several thousand volts is applied between the cathode and anode, faint luminous "rays" are seen extending from the holes in the back of the cathode. These rays are beams of particles moving in a direction opposite to the "cathode rays," which are streams of electronswhich move toward the anode. Goldstein called these positive rays Kanalstrahlen, "channel rays" or "canal rays", because they were produced by the holes or channels in the cathode
What are the positive points of ulteraviolet rays?
Ultraviolet rays can be used as for fluorescent lamps as certain chemicals glow when they absorb ultraviolet. In fluorescent lamps, the sindide of the tube is coated with a white powder that gives off light when it absorbs ultraviolet. The ultraviolet is produced by passing a current through a gas in the tube.
Who discovered gas discharge tube?
Johann Wilhelm Hittorf, a German physicist, is credited with discovering the gas discharge tube in the mid-19th century. His experiments with cathode rays in partially evacuated tubes laid the foundation for the development of early gas discharge tubes.
What are canal rays and why they are called canal rays?
Canal rays, also known as positive rays, are streams of positively charged particles, typically ions or atoms, that are emitted from the anode during gas discharge in a cathode ray tube. They are called "canal rays" because they travel through narrow channels or "canals" formed in the gas, which is ionized by the electrons emitted from the cathode. The discovery of canal rays helped in understanding the nature of atomic structure and led to the identification of different elements based on their positive ion emissions.
