MCQ
The radiation suffering the maximum deflection in a magnetic field is:
α - particles
β - particles
X - rays
γ - radiations
- Aα - particles
- ✓β - particles
- CX - rays
- Dγ - radiations
α - particles
β - particles
X - rays
γ - radiations
β-particles are negatively charged, so they get deflected by the electric and magnetic fields. The deflection of β-particle is more than that of a-particle since a β-particle is lighter than the α-particle. Whereas, gamma radiations are not deflected by the electric and magnetic fields since they are not charged particles.
