उत्तर
Discovery of – Protons
- Discovery – Constituent of positive rays i.e. particles that contain – protons.
Experiment:

- Goldstein used a modified cathode ray tube with a perforated cathode.
- He observed a new type of rays produced from the anode passing through the holes of the perforated cathode. These rays were called anode rays.
Conclusion:
- Anode rays or positive rays consist of positively charged particles now called – protons.
- The positive rays were affected by electric & magnetic fields but – in a direction opposite to that of cathode rays.
- Thus with the discovery of the positive particles – proton was initiated.
