normal to that of the flux.

6. What are the main parts of the CRT? Explain briefly with neat sketch and also
explain about the various materials used.

7. (a) Derive the expression for trajectory of an electron placed in combined elec-
tric(E) and magnetic fields(B). Both the fields are perpendicular to each other and
the initial velocity is zero.(b) Explain the terms: Potential, Electron Volt , Charge

8. An electron is injected with an initial velocity Vox of 4 × 106 m/sec halfway

between two large parallel plates 0.5 cm apart. The XZ plane is parallel to the
plates. There is a voltage of 200V impressed between the plates, and a magnetic
field of 10 mwb/ m2 perpendicular to the plates, directed from the positive to the
negative plate. Where does the electron strike the positive plate and with what
velocity?

9. An electron having a speed V0 = 107 m/sec is injected in the XY plane at an angle

of 300 to the X axis. A uniform magnetic field parallel to the Y-axis and with flux
 density B = 5.10 mwb/ m2 exists in the region. Find the position of the electron in
the region. Find the position of the electron in space at t=5 m sec after entering
the magnetic field.

10. In a CRT, the electrons emitted are accelerated by a potential of 500V. The
length of the deflecting plates is 1.3 cm. Distance between the deflecting plates is 0.5
cm. The distance between the centre of the deflecting plates and the screen is
20 cm. Determine the value of electrostatic deflection sensitivity.
11. In a CRT, the length of deflecting plates is 2cm. The spacing between the plates is
0.6cm. The distance of the screen from the center of the plates is 16cm.
Calculate the deflection sensitivity in m/volt if the final anode voltage is:

i. 600V and

ii. 900V

12. An infinitely large parallel plane plates are spaced 0.8 cm apart. The voltage on
one of the plates is raised from 0 to 5 V in 1 ns at a uniform rate with respect to the
other. After this duration, the potential difference between the plates is suddenly
dropped to 0 V and remains the same thereafter. Find

(a) The position of the electron, which started with zero initial velocity from the
negative plate, when the potential difference drops to zero volt,

(b) The total time of transit of the electron from the cathode to the anode.

13. Two plane parallel plates A and B are placed 3 mm apart and potential of b is
made 200 V positive with respect to plate A. An electron starts from rest from
plate A. Calculate

(a) The velocity of the electron on reaching plate B.

(b) Time taken by the electron to travel from plate A to plate B, and

(c) Kinetic energy of the electron on reaching the plate B.

14. In a parallel plate diode, the cathode and anode are spaced 5mm apart and the
anode is kept at 200V d.c. with respect to cathode. Calculate the velocity and the
15.

distance travelled by an electron after a time of 0.5ns, when (a) The initial
velocity of an electron is zero and (b) The initial velocity is 2×106 m/s in
the direction towards the anode.
