Chapter 19, Problem 19.74

(choose chapter or problem)

A particle passes through a mass spectrometer as illustrated in Figure P19.36. The electric fi eld between the plates of the velocity selector has a magnitude of 8 250 V/m, and the magnetic fi elds in both the velocity selector and the defl ection chamber have magnitudes of 0.093 1 T. In the defl ection chamber the particle strikes a photographic plate 39.6 cm removed from its exit point after traveling in a semicircle. (a) What is the mass-tocharge ratio of the particle? (b) What is the mass of the particle if it is doubly ionized? (c) What is its identity, assuming its an element?
