The figure shows the path of a particle of charge q and mass m through a device called a mass spectrometer. In the right section there is an electric field of module E, directed upwards and a magnetic field entering of module B, passing the ion without undergoing any deviation. In the left section there is only one field B, identical to the interior, and The particle's trajectory is curved so that it impacts perpendicularly at point b on the vertical screen separating both sections. A) Obtain the expression of the field E as a function of B, q, m and the distance d that separates the points a and b B) Describe how the trajectory in each section would change when replacing the particle with another with the same speed, but with charge -2q and mass 2m
