    Graham Bell wanted to upgrade the telephone and make it transmit images. Also to top it off, light was already being used it would be easier for one to make the “Photophone”. (The Invention of Television) As earlier said Philo Farnsworth won an award for a fool proof car ignition switch. This was from the Science and Invention Magazine, and this probably started his interest in electronics and technical machines. (Farnsworth, Philo) Now it is the 1900’s and people have stopped chasing butterflies and started to work. From here on out it seemed to be the electrical version had ousted out mechanical. This all thanks to to Campbell Swinton and Boris Rosing, because these men greatly improved the thinking going towards the tv by using cathode ray tubes. (The Invention of…

    His major discoveries came by doing experiments with cathode ray tubes which have electrons that emitted light when negative voltage and metal plates were added, this was the discovery of the electron or corpuscle as he named it (Unknown author, 1997). A cathode tube works by creating gaseous discharge, which "occurs in a gas at low pressure when subjected to an electrical potential difference, commonly applied via electrodes at the ends of a long glass tube. The resulting glow or light emission…

    For many Americans TV is essential for life. Like water it is something that is needed to go throughout the day. But, what is the effect that this is having on one’s mind, body, and family? Is the joy of the television for those 5 hours’ worth it? TV has many effects that do not benefit American culture; this includes bad health, not being productive, the thought processes one has. Watching TV is bad for one’s health. So many Americans have been turned into couch potatoes. Figure one is…

    In normal mode, the oscilloscope only sweeps if the input signal reaches the set trigger point; otherwise (on an analog oscilloscope) the screen is blank or (on a digitizing oscilloscope) frozen on the last acquired waveform. Normal mode can be disorienting since you may not see the signal at first if the level control is not adjusted correctly. Auto mode causes the oscilloscope to sweep, even without a trigger. If no signal is present, a timer in the oscilloscope triggers the sweep. This…

    Depends upon several steps:- 1-The x-ray tube and detector transverse (scan) the object. 2-The radiation beam passes through the object and is attenuated. The intensity of radiation beam from x- ray tube and transmitted beam both are detected by suitable detectors. 3-The transmitted beam and the references beam are both converted into electric signals. 4-These output current signals are then converted into digital form by analog –to-digital converter. 5-The digital data are then…

    Early Atomic Experiments Joseph John Thomson conducted an experiment that is known today as the CRT Experiment. The outcome of this experiment was JJ’s discovery of the electron. CRT is an acronym for Cathode Ray Tube, this gives a broad concept of what the experiment is about. The basic components of the experiment include, a glass cylindrical tube with most of the air inside vacuumed out of it, and inside the tube is Electrode for each side. One of the Electrodes is negative and entitled the…

    New development leads to changes in experimental methods. J.J. Thomson contradicted Dalton’s atomic theory by using a cathode ray tube. Thomson was born in 1856 and the cathode ray tube was invented in 1897; almost the same time during his years. He took a positive magnetic source near the rays and found the rays deflect to the positive and repel when a negative magnetic source was near it. From the classical physics of Newtonian physics, he figured that opposites attract and likes repel. Since…

    particle. He experiments with cathode ray tube showed that atom has a tiny negatively charged subatomic particles or electrons. (Collegeboard AP). In 19th century, J.J. Thomson began his experiment with cathode ray tude. Cathode ray tubes are sealed glass tubes from which most of the air has been evacuated. A high voltage is applied across two electrodes at one end of the tube, which causes a beam of particles to flow from the cathode (the negatively-charged electrode) to the anode (the…

    of electricity though gas. The discovery of electron helped many/connected the discovery of many other new researches. There were many experiments before the discovery of electrons but first we need to understand how his experiment works. First Gas is a poor conductor under normal condition but if the gas is in a glass container as a reduced pressure, then the voltage is then applied across two electrodes inside the container, a discharge will then occur allowing the gas to become conductive.…
