    Three invisible radiations X, Y and Z are passed through an electric field. X goes straight, Y deviates towards the positive end while Z deviates towards the negative end. The particles present in X, Y and Z and the elm ratio for X are e/m ratio for X are

    A)
    X Y Z e/m ratio for X
    \[\alpha \text{-particles}\] \[\beta \text{-particles}\] \[\gamma \text{-Rays}\] 0
                   

    B)
    X Y Z e/m ratio for X
    Neutrons Electrons Protons 0
                   

    C)
    X Y Z e/m ratio for X
    \[\alpha -Particles\] \[\beta -Particles\] \[\gamma -Rays\] 1
                   

    D)
    X Y Z e/m ratio for X
    Neutrons Electrons Protons 1

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    As X goes undeviated in the electric field, we can infer that it consists of chargeless particles (neutrons). Y deviates towards positive end of electric field, it means Y consists of negatively charged particles (electrons). Z deviates towards negative end of the electric field, this indicates that Z consists of positively charged particles (protons). Since X consists of neutrons, charge of neutron = 0 and mass of neutron = 1 u \[\therefore \] e/m for \[X=0/1\text{ }=0\]
