Q1 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2022 (08 Jul Shift 2) · Chemistry
While passing through the applied magnetic field, which of the following undergoes the maximum deflection?
- AStream of $\alpha$-particles
- Correct answerBStream of $\beta$-particles
- C$\gamma$-rays
- DStream of neutrons
Solution
Among the given options the deflection of $\beta$-particles is maximum while passing through the applied magnetic field. This is because, $\beta$-particle is lighter than the $\alpha$-particle.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
