That's going to depend on which pole of the magnet is sticking out towards

the beta stream (there are two choices), and also on the direction in which

the electrons are flowing past the magnet (there are two choices).

Beta particles are high speed electrons or positrons. They have charge so they will be deflected by a magnetic field.

A magnetic field alters the direction in which a beta particle travels. This is true if the charged particle has motion which has a component that is "across" the magnetic lines of force of the field through which it is moving.

The reason for the observed deflection is because a charged particle that is moving creates a magnetic field, and this field reacts with the magnetic field through which it is moving. The result will be lateral deflection, and positively charged particles will be deflected one way and negatively charged particles will be deflected the other.

In chemistry how do opposites attract?

the two poles of a magnet have opposite properties. one of them points towards north and the other points away from it (towards south). that's why poles of the same sign repel each other, whereas poles of opposite signs attract each other.


During a tug-of-war one side pulls with a force of 12000.0N toward the north and the other side pulls with a force of 12010.0 towards the south What is the net force on the mass of all the puller?

10N south would be the force exerted


Can two cations form ionic bond?

NO!!! Because they are both positive ions , they will REPEL each other. An ionic compound has both positive and negative ions. ~Thet attract each other. NB Think of the North and South poles of a magnet. Two north poles facing each other REPEL . A borth and South pole facing each other ATTRACT.


Do electrons have poles?

Yes, electron do have poles, since the rotation of electrons are set as up or down, and its rotation is quantized. Theses rotations about an axis, results in minute electromagnetic forces that attracts oppositely spinning electrons to the same energy level. There are many rules governing the configuration of electrons within the electron shell, the most important are the Pauli exclusion principle, which states no two electrons may occupy the same orbital with identical spins, and Hund's Rule, which states the electrons fill in order of orbitals to prevent the occupation of a orbital by two electrons, unless there is no more orbitals to place the new electron.

Where does the south pole a compass magnet points?

The north of the compass points to Earth's magnetic south pole, which is to the north.


When you suspend a magnet freely why does it always lie in north and south direction?

A magnet always points towards north and south if suspended freely because it gets attracted to the north and south poles of the earth. The east and west have weaker magnetism power.


What is the end of a magnet called?

A pole. They are called the north pole and south pole. The north pole of a magnet is defined as the pole that, when the magnet is freely suspended, points towards the Earth's North Magnetic Pole in the Arctic.


What would happen when a magnet meet to the south and south and north and north?

What does the s and the n mean in a magnet?

NORTH AND SOUTH


What happens when the opposite poles of the magnet are near each other?

Like poles attract. Unlike poles repel. So north and south will attract towards each other, while north and north (and south to south) will repel.


Why are the poles of a magnet called N and S?

When a magnet is freely suspended at its center it will set itself along the north-south direction. The tip pointing towards the geographical north direction is called the north pole and the other tip is called the south pole.


It has north and south poles?
