If this is an electric feild that goes in towards the page:
X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X
X X X X X X X
the alpha particle will move upwards as it is a helium nuclei (and therefore is overly positive)
the beta particle is an emited electron and therfore will move downwards.
Gamma Rays are a form of an electromagnetic wave that is released when a newly decayed atom goes from a excited state to a de-excited state. As it is a form of radiation, gamma rays do not have a charge and therefore move straight through the feild.
What else can I help you with?
What two types of radiation would be deflected by an electric field?
Ionizing radiation is generally divided into electromagnetic radiation and particulate radiation. Charged particles are affected, and this will include protons, beta particles and alpha particles. Neutrons, another particulate form of ionizing radiation, won't be affected. Electromagnetic ionizing radiation, cosmic rays and gamma rays, are not effected.
Which of the following are created by an arrangement of electric charge or a current?
for apex its: a quantum field, a gravitational field
Which kind of particle when passed through an electric field?
Charged particles, such as electrons or protons, will experience a force when passed through an electric field. The direction of the force depends on the charge of the particle and the direction of the electric field.
What kind of radiation will travel through an electric field on a pathway tht remains unaffected by the field?
Any electromagnetic radiation will, without experiencing any influence due to nearby electric charges or currents. That means anything from the longest radio wave to the shortest gamma one.
What is alpha radiation used for other than smoke detectors?
Alpha radiation is also used in the medical field for radioimmunotherapy to treat certain types of cancer. It is also used in industrial applications such as thickness gauges for measuring coatings on materials.

What ionizing radiation is not affected by an electric field?
No electromagnetic radiation, whether ionizing or not, is affected by an electric field or by a magnetic field.
Is gamma radiation stopped by an electric field?
No, gamma rays are not stopped by an electric field.
How does magnetism effect alpha radiation?
Magnetism does not directly affect alpha radiation, as alpha radiation consists of positively charged alpha particles that are not influenced by magnetic fields. However, in certain cases, magnetic fields can be used to manipulate the path of alpha particles for research or experimental purposes.
What type of radiation is not affected by magnetic fields?
Charged particles will be deflected by an electric field. The movement of any charged particle through an electric field will cause that charged particle to be attracted by one pole of the field and repelled by the other. That leaves uncharged particulate radiation, like a neutron, and electromagnetic radiation that will not be deflected by an electric field. The electromagnetic radiation will include X-rays and gamma rays.

What type of field would deflect alpha and beta particles?
An electromagnetic field would deflect alpha and beta particles. Charged particles like alpha and beta particles are affected by electromagnetic forces, causing them to change direction when passing through an electromagnetic field.
Are alpha particles affected by electric fields?
Yes, alpha particles are positively charged and will be affected by electric fields. They will experience a force in the direction of the field if they pass through it, causing them to deflect or change their trajectory.

Is gamma radiation effected by a magnetic field?
Nothing. The gamma ray is not deflected by a magnetic field, which demonstrates that unlike the alpha and beta rays, the gamma is not a stream of charged particles, but is electromagnetic radiation.
