Question

In a mass spectrometer, two beams of singly ionized isotopes of uranium 23592U and 23892U are injected with velocity 1.4*105m/s into a magnetic field of strength 0.7 T normally. Compute the distance d between the two trace lines of the isotopes after they complete one semi-circle. (Given: masses of the isotopes are m235 = 3.9*10-25 kg and m238 = 3.95*10-25)

a) 1.26 cm

b) 0.63 cm                      

c) 0.32 cm                      

d) none of these.
