Can a photon be deflected by an electric field ? By a magnetic field ?

A beam of cathode rays is subjected to crossed electric (E) and magnetic fields (B). The fields are adjusted such that the beam is not deflected. The specific charge of the cathode rays is given by:

A beam is supported at its ends by supports which are 12 metres apart. Since tha load is concentrated at its centre, there is a deflection of 3 cm at the centre and the deflected beam is in the shape of a parabola. How far from the centre is the deflection 1 cm ?

Can an electromagnetic wave be deflected by an electric field? By a magnetic field ?

X-rays of wave length 1.54Å strike a crystal and are observed to be deflected at an angle 22.5^(@) . Assuming that n = 1 , calculate the spacing between the planes of atom that are responsible for this reflection .

Comprehension- I A coplanar beam of light emerging from a point source have equation lambda x-y+2(1+lambda)=0,lambda in R. The rays of the beam strike an elliptical surface and get reflected. The reflected rays form another convergent beam having equation mu x-y+2(1-mu)=0,mu in R. Foot of the perpendicular from the point (2, 2) upon any tangent to the ellipse lies on the circle x^2 + y^2 - 4y - 5 = 0 The eccentricity of the ellipse is equal to
