What does negative polarity mean with electricity?

Polarity is the direction of flow of electrons throughout a circuit. There are two types of polarity: positive and negative. Postive polarity is of older circuits which means electrons flow from positive to negative. Negative polarity is of more modern circuits and that is the flow of electrons from negative to positive such as on car batteries

What are the different types of polarity questions?

Polarity questions can be categorized into positive polarity questions, which expect an affirmative response, and negative polarity questions, which expect a negative response. Positive polarity questions typically start with words like "Do," "Can," "Will," etc., while negative polarity questions usually start with words like "Don't," "Can't," "Won't," etc. These types of questions are important in linguistics and can impact the structure and interpretation of sentences.
