Singly charged uranium-238 ions are accelerated through a potential difference of 3.10 kV and enter a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 1.38 T directed perpendicular to their velocities. (a) Determine the radius of their circular path. (Give your answer to three significant figures.) (b) Repeat this calculation for uranium-235 ions. (Give your answer to three significant figures.)
A. using energy conservation to find the velocity
dPE = dKE
q*dV = 0.5*m*v^2
v = sqrt(2*q*dV/m)
dV = 3.10 kV = 3100 V
q = +e (since singly charged ion)
v = sqrt(2*1.6*10^-19*3100/(238*1.67*10^-27)) = 49958.47 m/sec
using force balance for circular motion
Fg = Fm
mv^2/r = qvB
r = mv/qB
r = 238*1.67*10^-27*49958.47/(1.6*10^-19*1.38)
r = 0.0899298 m = 8.99*10^-2 m
B. r = mv/qB
v = sqrt(2qV/m)
from both equation
r = sqrt(2Vm/qB^2)
so r is proportional to m
r2/r1 = sqrt(m2/m1)
r235 = r238*sqrt(m235/m238)
r235 = 0.0899298*sqrt(235/238)
r235 = 0.0893612 m = 8.93*10^-2 m
