MCQ
What is the purpose of anode in a Cathode ray tube?
- ✓To provide potential energy to electrons
- BTo provide kinetic energy to protons
- CTo provide potential energy to protons
- DTo provide kinetic energy to electrons

Answer
Correct option: A.
To provide potential energy to electrons
In a Cathode ray tube electrons comes out from cathode. After cathode, anode is placed, which as being $+$ ively charged, accelerates electrons and provide them kinetic energy.
