Key Stage 4

To deflect is to change the direction of a moving particle.

About Deflection

Small particles travelling in a straight line may be deflected by a larger particle changing their direction.
Charged particles may be deflected by a magnetic or electrostatic field. Opposite charges will be deflected in opposite directions.
