Question #65689

A proton, a neutron and electron all travelling at the same velocity enter a magnetic field. State which particles is deflected the most and explain your answer ?

Expert's answer

A proton and electron will be deflected on the same value, whereas neutron will not be deflected at all. It is due to the Lorentz force F = qvB*sin(v,B)
