the voltage that is applied across the X plates is usually provided by a circuit that is built in the CRO. it is known as
Correct answer: A. time base generator
- A. time base generator
- B. electric base generator
- C. X supplier
- D. power supply
Explanation
This specific circuit in a CRO generates a sawtooth waveform that is applied to the X plates. This waveform creates a horizontal sweep on the screen, allowing the visualization of the changing signal (applied to the Y plates) over time

About Electromagnetic Waves
Electromagnetic waves consist of mutually perpendicular, oscillating electric and magnetic fields that also remain perpendicular to the direction of propagation. They travel through vacuum at the speed of light and include radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays. Unlike mechanical waves, they do not require a material medium.
