Question

Consider the mass spectrometer shown schematically in the figure below. The electric field between the plates of the velocity selector is 940 V/m, and the magnetic fields in both the velocity selector and the deflection chamber have magnitudes of 0.920 T. Calculate the radius r of the path for a singly charged ion with mass m = 2.30 ✕ 10⁻²⁶ kg.
..... mm

A singly charged positive ion has a mass of 2.60 ✕ 10⁻²⁶ kg. After being accelerated through a potential difference of 268 V, the ion enters a magnetic field of 0.415 T, in a direction perpendicular to the field. Calculate the radius of the path of the ion in the field.
... cm
