Question

how does the charge of a particle affect the direction in wich the particles deflected in a megnetic field

Answer 1

Answer and explanation;

• The type of charge of a particle determines the direction in which the particles will be deflected in a magnetic field such that the negatively charged particles will go toward the positive end of the magnetic field while positively charged particles will go toward the negative end.
• This can be explained by the fact that the positive charge is repelled by the positive part of the field, and attracted by the negative end. The negative charge on the other hand will be repelled by the negative end and attracted by the positive end.

Answer 2

Negatively charged particles will go toward the positive end of the magnetic field and positively charged particles will go toward the negative end.
