A singly ionized (one electron removed) 40K atom passes through a velocity selector consisting of uniform perpendicular electric and magnetic fields. The selector is adjusted to allow ions having a speed of 4.50 km/s to pass through undeflected when the magnetic field is 0.0250 T. The ions next enter a second uniform magnetic field (B’) oriented at right angles to their velocity. 40K contains 19 protons and 21 neutrons and has a mass of 6.64 × 10-26 kg. (a) What is the magnitude of the electric field in the velocity selector? (b) What must be the magnitude of B’ so that the ions will be bent into a semicircle of radius 12.5 cm?
