Consider the following statement: 1. X-ray beam can be deflected by a magnetic field. 2. X-ray beam can be deflected by a electric field. 3. X-ray can neither be deflected by an electric field nor by a magnetic field. Which of the following statement is correct? Correct Answer Only 3

Concept:

  • When highly energetic electrons are made to strike a metal target, electromagnetic radiations come out.
  • A large part of this radiation has a wavelength of the order of 0.1 nm and is known as X-ray.
  • These rays named X-ray as at that time its nature and properties were not known.

Properties of X-Ray

  1. X - rays travel in a straight line in a vacuum at a speed equal to that of light (3× 108).
  2. X - rays are diffracted by crystals in accordance with Bragg’s law.
  3. X - rays are not deflected by an electric or magnetic field as it contains no charged particles.
  4. X - rays can affect a photographic plate more strongly than visible light.
  5. When passed through a gas, X - rays ionize the molecules of the gas.

Explanation:

  • As X-Rays are electromagnetic waves, They don't carry any charge.
  • Only charge particles are deflected by the Electric and Magnetic field.
  • So, the X-ray beam can not be deflected by any of both. Therefore option 3 is correct.

  • All electromagnetic waves (say Radio wave, Microwave, Infrared wave, Lightwave, UV wave, X-rays, Gamma rays) will not deflect in the Electric and magnetic field.
  • ​because they don't carry any charge.

Each item consists of six sentences of a passage. The first and sixth sentences are given in the beginning as S1 and S6. The middle four sentences in each have been jumbled up and labelled as P, Q, R and S. You are required to find the proper sequence of the four sentences and mark your response accordingly on the Answer Sheet. S1 : He no longer dreamed of storms, nor of women, nor of great occurrences, nor of great fish, nor fights, nor contests of strength, nor of his wife.

S6 : He urinated outside the shack and then went up the road to wake the boy.

P : He never dreamed about the boy.

Q : He only dreamed of places and of the lions on the beach now.

R : He simply woke, looked out through the open door at the moon and unrolled his trousers and put them on.

S : They played like young cats in the dusk and he loved them as he loved the boy.
