Physics: Deflection of particles by a magnetic field. Select true or false statements.
Consider a magnetic field in the z direction. Two particles are moving perpendicular to this magnetic field, that is, they are both moving in the x-y plane. It is observed that the particles are both deflected by the magnetic field and they are deflected in opposite directions. Which of the following scenarios can account for this behavior? Select True or False for the following:
True False they were initially moving in opposite directions, but they have the same charge
True False they were initially moving in the same direction, but one is uncharged
True False they were initially moving in opposite directions, but both are uncharged
True False they were initially moving in the same direction, but they are oppositely charged
True False they were initially moving in the same direction, but they have the same charge
True False they were initially moving in opposite directions, but they are oppositely charged
