What type of particle would not be deflected by a magnetic field?
A neutron, an antineutron, a neutrino, an antineutrino, and a photon would not be deflected by a magnetic field, as they all have no net electric charge. I do not find a reference to an antiphoton, but it makes sense that, if it existed, it would also not be affected by a magnetic field.
What happens to a current carrying wire in a magnetic field when it is reversed?
the wire would be deflected perpendicular to the magnetic field in the opposite direction.
Compass magnets can only be deflected by electromagnets such as Earth's magnetic field?
This is FALSE. TWICE!The Earths magnetic Field is not Electromagnetic.A compass can be deflected by any Magnet.
Particles deflected by an electric field are?
... electrically charged.
Is electric field can deflect y-rays?
As gamma rays are neutral it cannot be deflected by electric field.
Why beta particle is not deflected by strong magnatic field?
A beta particle is deflected by a magnetic field. Perhaps you are thinking of the neutron or the gamma ray?

Is not deflected by a magnetic field?
Photons, gluons, and neutrinos have no charge, and are thus not deflected by a magnetic field. Quarks, with a charge of +2/3 for the up, and -1/3 for the down, are deflected by magnetic fields, however, quarks assemble into larger particles such as protons and neutrons. The neutron, two down quarks and one up quark, has a net charge of zero, and is also not deflected by magnetic fields.
What happens to a current carrying wire in a magnetic field when it is reversed?
the wire would be deflected perpendicular to the magnetic field in the opposite direction.
How did JJ Thomson know that the particles in the cathode-ray tube were negatively charged?
They are found to be deflected by electric and magnetic field in the specific direction in which a negatively charged particle would get deflected.
Compass magnets can only be deflected by electromagnets such as Earth's magnetic field?
This is FALSE. TWICE!The Earths magnetic Field is not Electromagnetic.A compass can be deflected by any Magnet.
What would happen to cathode rays in a vacuum?
Cathode rays in a vacuum would travel until stopped (or deflected by an electromagnetic field).
Are x rays deflected by magnetic field?
nup.
Particles deflected by an electric field are?
... electrically charged.
Why beta and alpha particles deflected when they pass the magnetic field?
Alpha and beta particles are deflected by a magnetic field because they have charge and, as such, are affected by the electromagnetic interaction or force.
Why photon cannot be deflected by electric and magnetic field?
a photon cannot be deflected by an electric or magnetic field because it has no charge and no magnetic poles like elementary particles such as the electron
Is not deflected by a magnetic field by the radioactive emission?
Gamma rays .
