The Radius of a Circular Path
Not what you're looking for?
Question: Suppose that an ion source in a mass spectrometer produces doubly ionized gold ions (Au2+), each with a mass of 3.27, 10-25 kg. The ions are accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 1.30 kV. Then, a 0.490 T magnetic field causes the ions to follow a circular path. Determine the radius of the path in meters.
