The time taken by the entire electron pulse to reach the anode, in the Geiger Muller tube is:
Correct answer: D. None of these
- A. 1 ms
- B. Less than 1μs
- C. More than 1 μs
- D. None of these
Explanation
The time taken in a Geiger-Muller tube for an entire electron pulse to reach the anode depends on various factors, including the specific design of the tube, the applied voltage, and the nature of the radiation being detected.

About Nuclear Physics
Atomic nuclei contain protons and neutrons, with nuclear size, mass defect and binding energy describing their stability. The work covers alpha, beta and gamma decay, decay equations, half-life and decay rate, along with radiation safety and medical applications such as imaging, radiotherapy and tracers.
