Flow speed, electric generator, and mass spectrometer: Putting it all together

Mass spectrometer A mass spectrometer has a velocity selector that allows ions traveling at only one speed to pass with no deflection through slits at the ends. While moving through the velocity selector, the ions pass through a 60,000-N/C are mutually perpendicular. (a) Determine the speed of the ions that are not deflected. (b) After leaving the velocity selector, the ions continue to move in the 0.0500-T magnetic field. Determine the radius of curvature of a singly charged lithium ion, whose mass is 1.16 x 10^-26 kg.
