The diagram shows a mass spectrometer used for measuring the masses of isotopes. It consists of an ion generator and accelerator, a velocity selector and an ion separator, all in a vacuum. In one experiment, tin ions, each of which carries a charge +1.6 × 10-19C, are produced in the ion generator and are then accelerated by a p.d. of 20kV. Tin has a number of isotopes, two of which are tin-118 (118Sn) and tin-120 (120Sn). (a.) In practice, all ions produced by the ion generator have a range of speeds. A velocity selector is used to isolate ions with a single speed. In the velocity selector, the isolated ions go through undeviated, though being acted upon by forces from both the electric and magnetic fields. (i.) The plates producing the electric field have a separation of 2.0cm. The potentials of the plates are marked on the diagram. What is the magnitude of the force on an ion due to this electric field in the velocity selector? (ii.) Write down the condition and equation which must…

In proton beam therapy, a beam of high-energy protons is used to deliver radiation to a tumor, killing its cancerous cells. In one session, the radiologist calls for a dose of 4.9 x 108 protons to be delivered at a beam current of 120 nA. How long should the beam be turned on to deliver this dose?
A Van de Graaff generator (see Problem 24) produces a beam of 2.00-MeV deuterons, which are heavy hydrogen nuclei containing a proton and a neutron. (a) If the beam current is 10.0 A, what is the average separation of the deuterons? (b) Is the electrical force of repulsion among them a significant factor in beam stability? Explain.
