I have found that the cathode is the negative and the anode is the positive. The negative is the current and positive is the source of the current. You can use a simple diagram to explain this.
A cathode is what is left of a battery when the battery runs out of juice. An anode is what is left after a battery runs out of juice. So in a battery, the anode is the positive and the cathode is the negative. In an electric circuit, the cathode is the negative and the anode is the positive.
The cathode and anode are often confused because they are the same thing. But the cathode is not the anode. The cathode is the negative, which is what the battery is made of. In an electric circuit, the cathode is the positive, which is what the source is made of.
This is in contrast to a battery, which is made of the negative and positive. The battery is the negative and the source is the positive, which is what the battery is made of.
The positive and negative are the same thing. If you think of a battery as being made of the negative and positive, then you can see that they are both the same thing. They both make the negative, but they are also both the source.
The cathode is what gets the current that turns the circuit on, and the anode is what gets the current that turns the circuit off. The source of the current is what keeps the circuit working the way it is. When the current flows from the negative to the positive, then the circuit is turned on. When the current flows from the positive to the negative, then the circuit is turned off.
If we could just have a little more of the cathode in our system we wouldn’t need our phones and all of the other appliances we depend on. We would just be able to get a signal from them so we could tell when they were making the phone call or opening the refrigerator door.
The relationship between the cathode and the anode is really a good example of how electrical engineering deals with a problem. With the cathode and the anode we have a circuit that is turned on when the current flows from the positive to the negative. When the current flows from the negative to the positive, then the circuit is turned off. If we could have a little more of the cathode in our system we wouldnt need our phones and all of the other appliances we depend on.
This is an excellent example of why an electrical engineer is called a “cathode.” By analogy we could say that the cathode is “the power supply for the world,” the anode “the battery” of our electrical system.
Well, thats a great analogy, but you’d still have to say that the cathode is the power supply for our phone and the anode is our phone. In reality, our phone is the cathode, our phone battery is the anode. If we were to make a better analogy, its anode would be the battery and the cathode would be the battery.
