The amount of meat in prehistoric diets can be determined by
measuring the ratio of the isotopes 1ºN to 14N in bone from
human remains. Carnivores concentrate 15N, so this ratio tells
archaeologists how much meat was consumed.
Part A
For a mass spectrometer that has a path radius of 12.5 cm for 12C ions (mass 1.99 × 10-26 kg), find the separation of the 14N (mass 2.32 x 10-26 kg)
and 1ºN (mass 2.49 × 10 kg) isotopes at the detector. The separation of the isotopes at the detector is 2(RA – RB).
