Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct ?

  1. A.

    Persistence is the term used to describe the duration of phosphorescence.

  2. B.

    The control electrode is used to turn the electron beam on and off.

  3. C.

    The electron gun creates a source of electrons which are focussed into a narrow beam directed at the face of CRT.

  4. D.

    All of the above

Attempted by 289 students.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Summary: Each statement is correct. Brief explanations are given below.

  • Persistence: the duration of phosphorescence — how long a phosphor continues to emit light after the electron beam is removed. In CRTs, persistence affects flicker and motion blur.

  • Control electrode: the control grid modulates electron flow from the cathode and can turn the beam on or off, thereby controlling screen brightness.

  • Electron gun: produces the electron source and, with focusing electrodes, forms a narrow beam directed at the CRT face for image formation.

Answer: All of the above — each of the above statements is accurate.
