A cylindrical proportional tube has an anode wire radius of 0.003 cm and a cathode radius of 2.0 cm. It is operated with an applied voltage of 2000 V. If a minimum electric field of 1.0 MV/m is required to initiate gas multiplication, what fraction of the internal volume of the tube corresponds to the multiplication region?

A vacuum tube diode consists of concentric cylindrical electrodes, the negative cathode and the positive anode. Because of the accumulation of charge near the cathode, the electric potential between the electrodes is not a linear function of the position, even with planar geometry, but is given by V(x)=Cx4/3 where x is the distance from the cathode and C is a constant, characteristic of a particular diode and operating conditions. Assume that the distance between the cathode and anode is 14.0 mm and the potential difference between electrodes is...

Suppose a diode consists of a cylindrical cathode with a radius of 6.200×10-2 cm, mounted coaxially within a cylindrical anode with a radius of 0.5580 cm. The potential difference between the anode and cathode is 275 V. An electron leaves the surface of the cathode with zero initial speed v(initial) = 0). Find its speed v(final) when it strikes the anode.
