Which of the following statement is incorrect about cathode rays?

Question

Which of the following statement is incorrect about cathode rays? (A) Cathode rays are consists of electrons (B) The characteristic of cathode rays do not depend upon the material of electrodes and nature of the gas present in the cathode ray tube. (C) The deviation of the cathode rays from their path in the presence of electrical or magnetic field depends upon the magnitude of the negative charge on the cathode rays. (D) The deflection of electrons from its original path increases with the decrease in the voltage across the electrodes

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

The deflection of electrons from its original path increases with the increase in the voltage across the electrodes, or the strength of the magnetic field.

The characteristic of cathode rays do not depend upon the material of electrodes and nature of the gas present in the cathode ray tube.

The deviation of the cathode rays from their path in the presence of electrical or magnetic field depends upon the magnitude of the negative charge on the cathode rays.
