In a given electric field , the `beta` -particles are deflected more than the `alpha` -particles in spite of the `alpha`- particle having a larger charge.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`beta`-particles have very-very small mass and therefore, their charge to mass ratio is large despite their lowe charge. Thus, these are deflected more.
