Detailed explanation-1: -Cathode rays also get deflected when these are subjected to a strong magnetic field. The electrons in the cathode rays would deflect toward the positively charged plates, and away from the negatively charged plates.
Detailed explanation-2: -In the presence of an electric field, the cathode rays are deflected towards the positive charged plates (anode) as they are negatively charged. Cathode rays deflect towards positive plate in the presence of electric field.
Detailed explanation-3: -These rays are composed of negatively charged electrons and are thus deflected toward a positively charged plate because of attraction between opposite charges. In case of a negatively charged plate, cathode rays are deflected away from the plate due to repulsion between the like charges.
