When the electrons reach the collector, they flow towards the positivly charged grid. The resulting current is measured. Note th

at as the electrons accelerate from the cathode toward the grid, they collide with the mercury atoms. Assume that these collisions are completely elastic. How does the collected current vary if the ΔVgridΔVgrid is slowly increased? View Available Hint(s)

Answer:

We can conclude by saying that in the beginning current will increase but after sometime, it becomes saturated.

Explanation:

Note: No information on change in number of electron generated.

Since there is a collision, the electrons emitted will not reach the collector at same time. As the voltage is increased, the the speed with which the electrons will reach the collector starts to increase. Due to this, electric current will first increases till all the emitted electrons reach the collector. Since we are not provided with the information that number of electrons generated are changing, after increasing voltage current will increase for some time and then reaches a saturated state.

We can conclude by saying that in the beginning current will increase but after sometime it becomes saturated.

How is the scientific use of the term digital different from the common use
masha68 [24]
The scientific use of "digital" is usually used to describe signals and other entities that have an "either/or" value. An example is the binary system where 1 represents an "on" and 0 represents an "off"
The common use of digital implies anything that is electron, be it analogue or digital.

How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a small vehicle compared to a large vehicle?
zhannawk [14.2K]
The equation for kinetic energy is KE=1/2mv^2
So if the small vehicle AND the large vehicle both had the same speed, the large vehicle would have more kinetic energy since it has greater mass, resulting in a much more larger stopping distance than the smaller car.

Which statement is equivalent to newtons first law
larisa [96]

Newtons first law states "an object at rest will stay at rest while an object in motion will remain in motion" im confused as to what you are asking for but heres an example.

a car traveling at a speed of 35mph coming up to a stop sign has to slow down to a stop it cant stop instantly thats the same for it accelerating.
