Question
Which of the following property of a proton can change while it moves freely in a magnetic field? (There may be more than one correct answer.)
Options
mass
speed
velocity
momentum
Solution
velocity and momentum
Explanation:
Every charged particle moving in a magnetic field experiences a force. Fleming's left-hand rule determines the direction of the force on a positively charged particle (such as a proton). This force will alter both the velocity and momentum of the proton.

The graph (fig A) illustrates the correlation between the number of protons (x-axis) and the number of neutrons (y-axis) for elements A, B, C, D, and E in the periodic table. These elements are denoted by the letters rather than their conventional symbols. When the element C, depicted in the graph, undergoes radioactive decay, it releases radioactive rays. When these rays are directed into the plane of the paper in the presence of a magnetic field, as indicated in the fig B, they experience deflection, causing them to move upwards. |
