ENGINEERING APPLICATION, CONTEXT-RICH Your forensic chemistry group, working closely with local law enforcement agencies, has acquired a mass spectrometer similar to that discussed in the text. It employs a uniform magnetic field that has a magnitude of To calibrate the mass spectrometer, you decide to measure the masses of various carbon isotopes by measuring the position of impact of the various singly ionized carbon ions that have entered the spectrometer with a kinetic energy of A wire chamber with position sensitivity of is part of the apparatus. What will be the limit on its mass resolution (in kg) for ions in this mass range, that is, those whose mass is on the order of that of a carbon atom?
