प्रश्न
In following fig. shows a mixed source S of alpha and beta particles in a thick lead container. The particles pass through a magnetic field in a direction perpendicular to the plane of paper (inwards as shown by x). State and show in the diagram how the particles get affected.
उत्तर
(i) Alpha particles are heavy in mass and are positively charged so they are deflected less by magnetic field and direction is upward which can be calculated by Fleming left hand rule.
(ii) Beta particles are negligible in mass so they are highly deflected by magnetic field and they are negatively charge particle so they are deflected in downward direction.
(iii) Gamma radiations have no mass and no charge so they are not deflected by magnetic field.
