if it is correct plzz follow me dear

Answer 2

Given:

Thomson suggested that the amount of deviation of the particle from their path in the presence o

electrical or magnetic field depends upon

1) The magnitude of the negative charge on the particle.

II) The mass of particle.

III) The strength of the electrical or magnetical field.

To find:

Correct set of statements

Diagram:

$\boxed{\setlength{\unitlength}{1cm}\begin{picture}(6,4)\put(1,3){\circle*{0.25}}\put(1,3){\vector(1,0){1}}\put(2,2.5){\oval(1,1)[r]}\put(1,3.5){charge}\put(4,3){ \odot }\put(3.5,2.5){ \vec{B} \: or \: \vec{E} }\end{picture}}$

Solution:

All the statements are correct.

• A particle with higher negative charge would experience more force in the magnetic or electrostatic field such that it would be deflected more from its normal trajectory.

• A particle with less mass would undergo more deflection in presence of a magnetic field or an electrostatic field.

• Higher the magnetic or electrostatic field; more will be the amount of deflection of the charged.

So, deflection of a charged particle in presence of an electric or magnetic field depends upon all these three factors.
