Consider the mass spectrometer shown schematically in the figure below. The magnitude of the electric field between the plates of the velocity selector is 2.60×103 V/m, and the magnetic field in both the velocity selector and the deflection chamber has a magnitude of 0.0400 T. Calculate the radius of the path for a singly charged ion having a mass m = 1.82×10−26 kg. m
