1. What is Thermionic Emission?………………………………………………………………………………………………2. (a) Label the figure of a vacuum tube: (b) The figure shows ………… emitted are accelerated ………….. the anode by the high …………………… between the cathode and anode.(c) A beam of electrons moving at high speed in a vacuum is known as a ………………..3. Factors that influence the rate of thermionic emissionFactorEffect on the rate of thermionic emission
Temperature
of the cathodeWhen the temperature of the cathode increases, the rateof thermionic emission increases.
Surface area
of the cathodeA larger surface area of the cathode increases the rate of thermionic emission.
Potential difference
 between the anode andcathode.The rate of thermionic emission is unchanged, when the potential difference increases, but the emitted electronsaccelerate faster towards the anode.

CHAPTER 9: ELECTRONICS
When the temperature of the cathode increases, therate of thermionic emission increases. A larger surface area of the cathode increases therate of thermionic emission.The rate of thermionic emission is unchanged, whenthe potential difference increases, but the emitted electrons accelerate faster towards the anode.Thermionic Emission is the release of electrons from a heated metal cathode.towards potential differencecathode rayThey are negatively charged particles.They travel in straight lines.They possess momentum and kinetic energy.They are deflected by magnetic and electric field.electrons
