A Singly-Charged Ion Enters a Velocity Selector That Has A 0.18

Question 124

Short Answer

A singly-charged ion enters a velocity selector that has a 0.18T0.18 - T magnetic field perpendicular to an electric field of 1.6kV/m1.6 \mathrm { kV } / \mathrm { m } , with both fields perpendicular to the velocity of the ion. The same magnetic field is then used to deflect the ion into a circular path of radius 12.5 cm.(e=1.60×1019C)12.5 \mathrm {~cm} . \left( e = 1.60 \times 10 ^ { - 19 } \mathrm { C } \right)
(a) What velocity was selected by the velocity selector?
(b) What was the mass of the ion?
