what are the properties of cathode and anode rays?
Answers
Answer:
Property 2: Cathode rays are negatively charged. Property 3: Electric field and magnetic field deflect cathode rays. Property 4: They are produced at the cathode (negatively charged electrode) and travel towards the anode (positively charged electrode) in a vacuum tube
Answer:
Cathode rays are the beam of electrons travelling from the negatively-charged cathode to the positively charged anode at the other end of the vacuum tube. These cathode rays travel in a straight-line path at high speed when a voltage difference is applied to the electrodes.
Explanation:
Some Important Properties of cathode rays
Cathode Rays
Property 1: Cathode rays travel in a straight line and can cast sharp shadows.
Property 2: Cathode rays are negatively charged.
Property 3: Electric field and magnetic field deflect cathode rays.
Property 4: They are produced at the cathode (negatively charged electrode) and travel towards the anode (positively charged electrode) in a vacuum tube.
Property 5: The properties of the cathode rays do not depend on the electrodes and the gas used in the vacuum tube.
Property 6: Speed of cathode rays is slower than light.
Property 7: The objects hit by cathode rays get heated.
Property 8: They can penetrate through thin metal plates.
Property 9: Phosphors glow when cathode rays fall on them.
Property 10: Gas gets ionized by cathode rays.
Property 11: Cathode rays are 1800 times lighter than hydrogen, the lightest element
