Solved: Singly ionized carbon atoms are accelerated
Chapter 29, Problem 29.1(choose chapter or problem)
Singly ionized carbon atoms are accelerated through 1 000 V and passed into a mass spectrometer to determine the isotopes present. (See Chapter 19.) The magnetic fi eld strength in the spectrometer is 0.200 T. (a) Determine the orbital radii for the 12C and the 13C isotopes as they pass through the fi eld. (b) Show that the ratio of the radii may be written in the form r1 r2 5 m1 m2 and verify that your radii in part (a) satisfy this formula.
