![]() ![]() When batteries are recharged, the anode and cathode swap places because current is flowing in the reverse direction. The terminal where current flows out of the device into the circuit is called the cathode, and the terminal where current flows into the device is called the anode. The terms anode and cathode have nothing to do with charge, they are about current direction. The second EHT anode is part of a capacitor formed by conductive coating on both sides of the glass bell, and its positive charge is balanced by a negative charge on the outside. ![]() The first anode (the plate of the electron gun) is also not charged. It emits electrons thermionically in a continuous process. In the CRT example, the cathode is never charged. Correct? I saw them mix this up on PBS youtube scishow, and they people in the comments like to pretend they know what they are talking about.Ĭonductors in a circuit are not charged. The negative terminal starts to turn H2O into H+ then neutral H2. Hydrogen gas is made when the Pb H2SO4 chemistry is done then electrolysis starts occurring. They then flow out through the car where they o to the (+) terminal where hydrogen ions (protons or H3O) are waiting for electrons to become neutral. charged atoms or anions migrate to the (-) terminal MAKING it the cathode (cause and effect here is important here). ~Anode is positively charged: That's the thick red high voltage wire toward the front of the CRT, you don't want to touch that. ~Cathodes are negatively charged conductors: The cathode in a cathode ray tube is at the back of the tube and shoots off electrons (cathode rays). Negative anode? My understanding is this: ~Cations are positively charged atoms.
