उत्तर
When the radiation coming out from a certain radioactive substance is passed through an electric field, marks are found at three places on the photographic plate placed in its path. These three marks represent the three kinds of rays which are emitted by the radioactive substances. One type of radiation deviated slightly towards the negatively charged plate and was called alpha rays. The second type of radiation deviated substantially towards the positively charged plate and was called the beta rays. The third type of radiation did not deviate at all and was called the gamma rays.
