Question

A beam of alpha particles is subjected to a strong magnetic field. The alpha particles are:

विकल्प

• strongly deflected towards north pole

• weakly deflected towards north pole

• weakly deflected towards south pole

• not deflected at all

Answer 1

Weakly deflected towards north pole

Explanation:

α-particles are positively charged, so a magnetic field deflects them. Because they are heavy, they deflect only slightly. They deflect weakly toward the north pole.
