Question
A modified discharge tube is used as a ________:

Answer

  1. All the above
Explanation:
A discharge tube is a tube containing charged electrodes and filled with a gas in which ionization is induced by an electric filed. X-ray tube, fluroscent tube and cathode rays oscilloscope can be used as a modified discharge tube in which these tubes contain charged electrodes and filled with a gas.
