Two isotopes of carbon, C-12 and C-13, have masses of 19.92 x 10-27 kg and 21.59 x 10-27 kg, respectively. These two isotopes are singly ionized (due to the removal of one electron) and each is given a speed of 6.667 x105 m/s. The ions then enter the bending region of a mass spectrometer where the magnetic field is 0.8500 T. Determine the spatial separation (difference between the diameters of the trajectories) between the two isotopes after they have traveled through a half-circle.
