QAIPM-2002-Ph-2807: NEET 2002 Physics - Class 12 AIPM-2002-Ph-2807 Solution: Which of the following is not the property of cathode rays?

Which of the following is not the property of cathode rays?

Multiple Choice Options

  • A It produces heating effect
  • B It does not deflect in electric field
  • C It casts shadow
  • D It produces fluorescence.

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Cathode rays are basically negatively charged particles (electrons). If the cathode rays are allowed to pass between two plates kept at a difference of potential, the rays are found to be deflected from the rectilinear path. The direction of deflection shows that the rays carry negative charges.
