An electron is sent through a velocity selector which has an electric field of ~E = (1.75x103, upward) with the intent of picking electrons that have a speed of v = 5.3×106". Upon exiting the velocity selector the electron is sent into a mass spectrometer which has a magnetic field of B2= (6.8×10-3T , out of the page), as shown in Figure 1.

An electron is sent through a velocity selector which has an electric field of ~E =
(1.75x103, upward) with the intent of picking electrons that have a speed of v =
5.3x106". Upon exiting the velocity selector the electron is sent into a mass
spectrometer which has a magnetic field of B2 = (6.8×10-3T , out of the page),
as shown in Figure 1.
a) What magnetic filed (B1) is needed in the velocity selector in order to pick
electrons with the above speed?
b) which detector does the particle hit?
c) How far from where the electron entered the mass spectrometer should the detector
be placed so that it will detect the electron (what is d)?
