Solution Steps

Step 1: Understanding the Function of an X-ray Tube

An X-ray tube operates by having a positive side (anode) and a negative side (cathode). Electrons are emitted from the cathode and accelerated towards the anode, where they produce X-rays.

Step 2: Identifying the Electrical Component

Given that the X-ray tube has a positive and negative side, it functions similarly to a component that allows current to flow in one direction only. This is characteristic of a diode.

Final Answer

\(\boxed{\text{diode}}\)
