Radiation Path Deviation in Electric Field Setup

The figure below shows the path taken by three radiations A, B, and C from a radioactive source through an electric field.
Radiation Path Deviation in Electric Field Setup

(i) Identify the radiation B
(ii) Give a reason for the difference in deviation shown by A and C

(i) gamma rays.
(ii) A are β particles which are negatively charged hence attracted to positively charged plate and are lighter than C hence more deviation compared to C which are β particles which are positively charged hence attracted to the negatively charged plate and are heavier hence less deviation.

In this thought-provoking response, the author's perspective is skillfully backed by an extensive body of comprehensive research and readily available information, offering a well-informed and compelling exploration of the subject matter.
