Options:
  • A In the absence of electric or magnetic field, the cathode rays travel in straight line.
  • B In the presence of electric or magnetic field, the behaviour of cathode rays is similar to that expected from negatively charged particles
  • C In the presence of electric and magnetic field, the cathode rays travel in straight line.
  • D The cathode rays starts from the cathode and move toward the anode.

The correct answer is: In the presence of electric and magnetic field, the cathode rays travel in straight line.
In presence of electric and magnetic field, th cathode rays travel in straight line is not the result. Actually, they are deflected by electric anc magnetic field.
When the rays are passed between two electrical charged plates, these are deflected towards positively charged plate.
In magnetic field, they are deflected at a right angle to both the field and to the direction of particle.
