The correct Answer is:
To solve the question about which emissions from a radioactive compound can be deflected in a magnetic field, we will analyze the options provided based on their charge properties. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: We need to determine which of the emissions (electron, proton, helium nucleus, or neutron) can be deflected in a magnetic field. 2. **Identifying Charged Particles**: - Electrons are negatively charged particles (charge = -e). - Protons are positively charged particles (charge = +e). - Helium nuclei (He²⁺) are positively charged particles (charge = +2e). - Neutrons are neutral particles (charge = 0). 3. **Magnetic Force on Charged Particles**: The magnetic force acting on a charged particle moving in a magnetic field is given by the equation: \[ F = Q(\mathbf{v} \times \mathbf{B}) \] where \( Q \) is the charge of the particle, \( \mathbf{v} \) is the velocity, and \( \mathbf{B} \) is the magnetic field. Only charged particles will experience a magnetic force and thus can be deflected. 4. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Electrons**: Since they have a charge (-e), they will be deflected in a magnetic field. - **Protons**: They have a charge (+e), so they will also be deflected. - **Helium Nucleus (He²⁺)**: With a charge of +2e, it will be deflected as well. - **Neutrons**: Being neutral (charge = 0), they will not experience any magnetic force and therefore will not be deflected. 5. **Conclusion**: The particles that can be deflected in a magnetic field are electrons, protons, and helium nuclei. Neutrons cannot be deflected. ### Final Answer: The emission at the instant can be electrons, protons, or helium nuclei. Therefore, the correct options are (i) electrons, (ii) protons, and (iii) helium nuclei.

Following experiment was performed by J.J. Thomson in order to measure ratio of charge e and mass m of electron. Electrons emitted from a hot filament are accelerated by a potential difference V. As the electrons pass through deflecting plates, they encounter both electric and magnetic fields. the entire region in which electrons leave the plates they enters a field free region that extends to fluorescent screen. The entire region in which electrons travel is evacuated. Firstly, electric and magnetic fields were made zero and position of undeflected electron beam on the screen was noted. The electric field was turned on and resulting deflection was noted. Deflection is given by d_(1) = (eEL^(2))/(2mV^(2)) where L = length of deflecting plate and v = speed of electron. In second part of experiment, magnetic field was adjusted so as to exactly cancel the electric force leaving the electron beam undeflected. This gives eE = evB. Using expression for d_(1) we can find out (e)/(m) = (2d_(1)E)/(B^(2)L^(2)) If the electron is deflected downward when only electric field is turned on, in what direction do the electric and magnetic fields point in second part of experiment
