Cathode polarity with respect to the anode can be positive or negative depending on how the device is being operated. Inside a device or a cell, positively charged cations always move towards the cathode and negatively charged anions move towards the anode, although cathode polarity depends on the device type, and can even vary according to the ...
In a vacuum tube or a semiconductor having polarity (diodes, electrolytic capacitors) the anode is the positive (+) electrode and the cathode the negative (−). The electrons enter the device through the cathode and exit the device through the anode. Many devices have other electrodes to control operation, e.g., base, gate, control grid.
The cathode is the negative electrode. Any gas-discharge lamp has a positive (anode) and a negative electrode. Both electrodes alternate between acting as an anode and a cathode when these devices run with alternating current.

The FBISE was established under the FBISE Act 1975. [2] It is an autonomous body of working under the Ministry of Federal Education and Professional Training. [3] The official website of FBISE was launched on June 7, 2001, and was inaugurated by Mrs. Zobaida Jalal, the Minister for Education [4] The first-ever online result of FBISE was announced on 18 August 2001.

In electronics, cathode bias (also known as self-bias, or automatic bias) is a technique used with vacuum tubes to make the direct current (dc) cathode voltage positive in relation to the negative side of the plate voltage supply by an amount equal to the magnitude of the desired grid bias voltage.

The cation, which is the positive ion, will be attracted to the cathode (−), thus reducing the sodium ion. The chloride anion will then be attracted to the anode (+), where it is oxidized to chlorine gas. [30] The following half reactions should be considered in the process mentioned: [30] Cathode: Na + (aq) + e − → Na(s) E° red = –2.71 V
The sum of the cathodic partial current density i c (positive) and the anodic partial current density i a (negative) gives the net current density i: [2] i = i c + i a In the case of the cathodic partial current density being equal to the anodic partial current density (for example, in a corrosion process [ 3 ] ), the net current density on the ...
A galvanic cell's anode is less negative, supplying less energy than thermodynamically possible. A galvanic cell's cathode is less positive, supplying less energy than thermodynamically possible. The overpotential increases with growing current density (or rate), as described by the Tafel equation .
