alpha plate is modern electroplate, not to confuse with sheffield plate. the name sheffield should only refer to location

The beam would be deflected to the negative plate, as alpha particles are Helium nuclei and are positively charged.
The two main types of plates are continental plates and oceanic plates. Continental plates are larger, thicker and less dense compared to oceanic plates.
Probably not. You need a ferromagnetic material for a magnet to stick. There are basically three elements that are ferromagnetic: Cobalt [Co]; Nickel [Ni]; & Iron [Fe] (and some esoteric ones too). If the metal alloy that has been plated with silver to make the "silver plate" has enough of these then a magnet will stick, of these, only Nickel is commonly a component of alloys that are plated but often not in concentrations that are sufficient to make it obviously magnetic.
On exposure to light both compounds forms silver metal in very finely divided state. Inside a camera the bright areas of the image projected onto a photgraphic plate or film are exposed more and therefore more silver gets deposited. This produces a "negative" of the image which is then used to produce the photograph.
It's called alpha-decay. The two protons and two neutrons are removed in the form of alpha particles, or helium nuclei.
i have a 925 silver bracelet that is italian
It is quadruple silver plate. It's still silver plate, but better quality silver plate.
Some Sheffield silver is pure silver and some is silver plate. However, I think that a lot of Sheffield silver if pure and not plated.
No, it has a thin plate of silver on a metal like copper or similar. As a general rule, if it includes the word "Plate"; It's not solid silver.
If the bowl is stamped "sterling," it is genuine sterling silver, not silver plate.
solid silver
does quadruple have any silver in it
If it is sterling it will be imprinted on the piece. Otherwise it is silver plate. Most Rogers Brothers is silver plate.
Not WHO, but WHAT! Silver plate.
quadruple plate is silver plated, but it is generally considered to be a high quality silver plate as it has been through the plating process 4 times.
silver plate
Alpha particles are deflected towards negative plates because they are positively charged.
