Consider two different isotopes of uranium both moving at the same speed of 4.027 × 104 m/s in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 1.20 T. The magnetic field points into the page (see sketch). The mass of the first isotope (U+)is 3.902 × 10–25 kg whereas the mass of the second (U+) is 3.952 × 10-25 kg. B, +++++ +++++ +++++I ut (d) A new ion now sent into the velocity selector of the mass spectrometer. The following observations are made: the ion is detected on the bottom section of the chamber and the distance from the entrance of the chamber is 12.4 cm. What information can be concluded about this ion?
