A mass spectrometer is being used to separate common oxygen- 16 from the much rarer oxygen-18, taken from a sample of old glacial ice. (The relative abundance of these oxygen isotopes is related to climatic temperature at the time the ice s deposited.) The ratio of the masses of these two ions is 16 to 18, the mass of oxygen-16 is 2.661026kg, , and they are singly charged and travel at 5.00106m/s in a 1.20-T magnetic field. What is the separation between their path when they hit a target after travet5ing a semicircle?
