Question
Triply charged uranium-235 and uranium-238 ions are being separated in a mass spectrometer. (The much rarer uranium-235 is used as reactor fuel.) The masses of the ions are 3.90 ✕ 10−25 kg and 3.95 ✕ 10−25 kg, respectively, and they travel at 9.00 ✕ 105 m/s in a 0.323 T field. What is the separation (in m) between their paths when they hit a target after traversing a semicircle?

- Starting from rest, an electron is accelerated through a region between two oppositely charged plates, as shown in Figure 1. The distance between the plates is 10 cm and the magnitude of the potential difference between them is 100 V. Immediately after exiting the region with the uniform electric field, the electron enters a region with a uniform magnetic field of 0.85 T, directed into the page.
