Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Alpha particles are attracted by negatively charged particles, which proves that they must be positively charged as unlike charges attract. Alpha particles are helium nuclei with 2 protons, giving them their positive charge. The movement of the positive charge particles also creates a magnetic field. Therefore, when current flows through a moving beam of alpha particles, the movement of charges creates a magnetic field around it.
