General · Answer 1

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.
