The figure shows a velocity selector that can be used to measure the speed of a charged particle. A beam of particles is directed along the axis of the instrument. A parallel plate capacitor sets up an electric field E, which is oriented perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B. If the plates are separated by 2 mm and the value of the magnetic field is 0.6 T, what voltage between the plates will allow particles of speed 5 x 10^5 m/s to pass straight through without deflection? *

A particle passes through a mass spectrometer as illustrated in the figure below. The electric field between the plates of the velocity selector has a magnitude of 8060 V/m, and the magnetic fields in both the velocity selector and the deflection chamber have magnitudes of 0.0920 T. In the deflection chamber the particle strikes a photographic plate 39.6 cm removed from its exit point after traveling in a semicircle. The diagram depicts a velocity selector. The plane of the page is filled with symmetrically arranged crosses labeled vector B0, in above a horizontal plate, and vector Bin below the horizontal plate. Below the horizontal plate, two vertical plates are placed parallel to each other in the right position of the field. The left plate is positively charged and the right plate is negatively charged. The electric field vector E points from the positive plate to the right toward the negative plate. A positively charged particle of charge q and velocity vector v pointing upward…
The Bainbridge spectrometer works by ionizing particles, sending them through a velocity selector, and then detecting a given charge-to-mass ratio based on its trajectory in a uniform magnetic field (See Ch 11.7 in your book). Suppose your spectrometer works by altering the electric field of the velocity selector to scan for ions. If a singly-charged ion of mass 140.9 amu required an electric field of 1.9 N/C, what electric field would be necessary to detect a doubly-charged ion of mass 161.9? Give your answer in units of N/C.
