A beam of electrons is sent horizontally down the axis of a tube to strike a fluorescent screen at the end of the tube. On the w
ay, the electrons encounter a magnetic field directed vertically downward. The spot on the screen will therefore be deflected: 1. not at all 2. upward 3. to the right as seen from the electron source 4. to the left as seen from the electron source 5. downward
The answer to this question can be found by applying the right hand rule for which the pointer finger is in the direction of the electron movement, the thumb is pointing in the direction of the magnetic field, so the effect that this will have on the electrons is the direction that the middle finger points in which is right in this example.
So as a result of the magnetic field directed vertically downwards which is at a right angle with the electron beams, the electrons will move to the right and the spot will be deflected to the right of the screen when looking from the electron source.
As far as I remember, in 1990, the Human Genome Project began with the stated goal to l<span>ocate the specific genes that cause given diseases.</span>
