The ions entering the mass spectrometer have the same charges. After being accelerated through a potential difference of 3.30 kV, a singly charged 12c* ion moves in a circle of radius 18.4 cm in the magnetic field of a mass spectrometer. What is the magnitude of the field? Use these atomic mass values: 12c, 12.O u; 14C, 14.0 u; 160, 15.99 u. The conversion between atomic mass units and kilograms is 1u = 1.66 x 10-27 kg.

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.
