Q. 7

A diode valve is

Class 12th HC Verma - Concepts of Physics Part 2 41. Electric Current through Gases

Answer :

The important thing to note in this question is that diode’s cathode is connected to battery’s negative terminal. When filament is heated it will continuously emit electrons from it but battery’s negative terminal will also provide electrons which makes the diode electrically neutral in nature
