 Analysis of the test results:

 We did the same steps that we adopted in the previous test, but here we used a power supply (with up to 200 amps)

responsible for supplying tungsten with energy ranging between 6 and 12 volts;  Through it, we were able to give tungsten from 6 to 8 volts,

but when we gave tungsten 9 volts, this caused it to burn because it consumed a high percentage of the ampere. 

After that, we turned on the high voltage, but the electrons did not penetrate the hole, rather they deviated towards different directions from the plaque,

which indicates problems in insulation.  And there is still electron leakage around the cylinder.

 

 

 when we apply 6 V

 

 

 

when we apply 7 v

when we apply 8 v

 

 

 WHAT WE HAVE TO DO

-We will wrap the plack with insulating rubber, while leaving the wall and what is adjacent to it ~ 2 cm without insulation.

-We will isolate the cylinder with rubber to prevent electron leakage
