In the picture tube of an anachronistic television set, electrons are "boiled" off a hot cathode in a process called thermionic emission.

They subsequently pass through an aperture in the anode with a speed of 2.65 x 107 m/s. The picture tube is under vacuum, and any forces other than electric forces are negligible and can be ignored.
