Expert Answer
(a) Common properties of beta rays and cathode rays :
(i) Both are negatively charged with charge and mass equal to that of an electron.
(ii) Both are deflected by the electric and magnetic fields.
(iii) Both cause fluorescence on striking a fluorescent material.
(b) Difference : Beta rays differ from cathode rays in their origin. Beta rays are given out from the nucleus of the atom while cathode rays are given out from the orbital electrons.
