It would be induced to follow the lines of force in a clockwise spiral. As the lines of force at the equator are parallel to the surface of the Earth, the charged particle would be deflected northwards.

When beta particle strikes a living cell?

It interacts with the molecules making up the cell and creates one or more ion pairs by causing outer electrons to leave the molecule and making the molecule positively charged, while the released electron is negatively charged.


Where does gas particles become electrically charged?

Gas particles become electrically charged when they gain or lose electrons due to interactions with other charged particles or electromagnetic fields. This process is known as ionization and can occur in environments such as plasmas, lightning strikes, or particle accelerators.


When a beta particle strikes a living cell what happens?

One or more ion pair is created when a beta particle strikes a living thing and interacts with the molecules making up the cell. The cell may also cease to function.


Why are averages temperatures higher at the equator than near the poles?

The energy that reaches the equator is more intense than the energy that strikes poles


The vertical ray of the sun strikes the earth where?

The vertical ray of the sun strikes the Earth directly at the equator. This phenomenon occurs during the equinoxes when the sun is directly above the equator, causing equal day and night lengths at all locations on Earth.

What things produce a big charge?

Some things that can produce a large electric charge include lightning strikes, powerful electric generators, Van de Graaff generators, and charged particle accelerators. These devices are capable of generating high voltage levels that result in significant electric charges.


Does the solar rays strike the equator at 180 angle?

No, solar rays do not strike the equator at a 180-degree angle. The angle at which the sunlight strikes the equator varies throughout the year due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. This variation is what causes the seasons.


How does the suns energy affect air at the equator and the North Pole differently?

Sunlight strikes the equator directly, and over a shorter distance through the earth's atmosphere, so retains more heat. At the poles, the sunlight strikes at an angle, and the light travels further through the atmosphere, so being much cooler.
