Answer» Answer: CATHODE rays Explanation: Cathode rays (also called an electron beam or an e-beam) are streams of electrons observed in vacuum tubes. If an evacuated glass tube is equipped with two electrodes and a voltage is applied, the glass opposite the NEGATIVE electrode is observed to GLOW from electrons emitted from the cathode. Electrons were first discovered as the constituents of cathode rays. The image in a classic television set is created by FOCUSED beam of electrons deflected by ELECTRIC or magnetic fields in cathode ray tubes (CRTs). |
