Question

A magnetron valve is used to produce:

• A. Gamma rays
• B. Microwaves
• C. Radio waves
• D. X-rays

Hint:

The magnetron valve is specifically designed to generate microwaves, which are electromagnetic waves with wavelengths ranging from 1 mm to 30 cm.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

A magnetron valve is an electron tube that generates microwaves. These microwaves are generated by the motion of electrons in the presence of a magnetic field, which leads to the production of microwave radiation. This is widely used in microwave ovens, radar systems, and in communication technologies.
