A positively charged object is placed to the right of a cathode ray. which direction will the ray bend

Cathode rays are negatively charged.

Chatode rays are electron beams.

Then, based on the knwon principle that two objects with different sign of charge attract each other, when a positively charged object is placed to the right of a cathode ray (whose charge is negative), the ray will be attracted by the positevely charged object.

So, the ray will bend to the right.
