Description: An applet demonstrating the experiment of Crookes to show electrons travel in straight paths.
Molecular Expressions: Electricity and Magnetism - Interactive Java Tutorials: Crookes Tube Created by Sir William Crookes during the late nineteenth century, this sealed glass tube was used to demonstrate the path travelled by cathode rays. When an electric current is applied to the tube, a patch of fluorescent light would appear on the walls of the tube due to the interaction of electrons with residual gas in the tube.
