Textbook Question
Chapter 30, Problem 49PQ
A proton and a helium nucleus (consisting of two protons and two neutrons) pass through a velocity selector and into a mass spectrometer. The radius of the proton’s circular path is rp. Find an expression for the radius r of the helium nucleus’s path in terms of rp. (You may assume the mass of a proton is roughly equal to the mass of a neutron, and the helium nucleus has the same speed as the proton.)

- Modified True/False - indicate whether the sentence or statement is true or false. If the statement is false, correct the statement to make it true. 12. An object in uniform circular motion has a constant velocity while experiencing centripetal acceleration. 13. An object travelling in uniform circular motion experiences an outward centrifugal force that tends to pull the object out of the circular path. 14. An object with less inertia can resist changes in motion more than an object with more inertia. 15. For an object sliding on a horizontal surface with a horizontal applied force, the frictional force will always increase as the applied force increases.arrow_forwardPls help asaparrow_forwardAnswer the given question showing step by step by and all necessary working out.arrow_forward
