With fixed dimensions of Cathode Ray Tube (C.R.T), the ratio of electrostatic deflection sensitivity to magnetic deflection sensitivity, if the accelerating voltage is 10 kV, is:
Show Hint
Electrostatic deflection is more sensitive because deflection occurs over the entire plate length, unlike magnetic fields.
The electrostatic deflection sensitivity is significantly higher than magnetic deflection sensitivity. For a typical CRT with 10 kV accelerating voltage:
\[
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Electrostatic sensitivity}}{\text{Magnetic sensitivity}} = 50 : 1
\]
