A bubble chamber is a vessel with a uniform magnetic field running through it filled with a superheated transparent liquid (most often liquid hydrogen) used to detect electrically charged particles moving through it. It was invented in 1952 by Donald A. Glaser, for which he was awarded the 1960 Nobel Prize in Physics. Here is a photograph obtained in a bubble chamber, showing various charges circling around because of the magnetic field: Which of the following statements is false? Hint: Use the formula you found in the last question to help you with this question. Particles with positive charge will circle in one direction (perhaps clockwise) while particles of negative charge will circle in the opposite direction (perhaps counterclockwise). Heavier charges would have a larger radius of curvature, Particles with a larger charge would have a larger radius of curvature. Faster particles would have a larger radius of curvature. Increasing the magnetic field strength in the bubble chamber would result in a smaller radius of curvature for the particles. Neutral particles would pass straight through the chamber without bending due to the magnetic field.
