On most TV's the tube takes some time to become bright as the power supply builds up to operating level. The delay is much less with the sound system because the voltages are lower and LCD screens come up very quickly. Most TV's with tubes are now "instant on" which means they are supplied with electricity when "off" so they are preheated. Before "instant on", tube type TV's took close to 2 minutes to show an image.

when we switch on the tv, the sound is transmitted immediately, but light could be produced only after the filament in the picture tube gets heated up to the necessary temperature. hence, when we switch on the tv, we observe sound first and then light.

Not with all TVs. This varies from barand from brand and depends on the picture tube. Go to a TV shop and compare different brands. I had observed that Sony takes the logest time. SOme TVs gives pictures almost instantly. It is because of the time the picture tube take to warm up.

If your TV has a CRT, it takes a few seconds for the filament in the electron gun located in the neck of the tube to reach operating temperature. At that point it will begin emitting the electron beam that "draws" the picture on the screen.
