Question
In a velocity selector in a mass spectrometer the magnetic field has a strength of 0.270 T and the electric field has a strength of 6.97 ✕ 105 V/m.
 
(a)Calculate the speed (in m/s) of the charge particles in the velocity selector. m/s
 
(b)Calculate the voltage difference (in kV) between the plates supplying the electric field if the plates are separated by 2.10 cm.kV
 
(c)Protons are used in the velocity selector and they travel in a direction moving from left to right as viewed on the screen. After passing through the velocity selector, they enter a region that has the magnetic field given above and the field points into the screen. Calculate the radius (in mm) of the circular trajectory for the protons. (Mass and charge of the proton are: 1.673 x 10-27 kg and 1.602 x 10-19 C, respectively). mm
 
(d)Determine the direction in which the protons will curve when they enter the region that has only the magnetic field.
Curved down toward the bottom of the screen
Curved out of the screen    
 Curved up toward the top of the screen
Curved into the screen
