Physics

A certain commercial mass spectrometer is used to separateuranium ions of mass 3.92 × 10-25 kg and charge 3.20 × 10-19 C fromrelated species. The ions are accelerated through a potentialdifference of 106 kV and then pass into a uniform magnetic field,where they are bent in a path of radius 0.891 m. After travelingthrough 180° and passing through a slit of width 0.774 mm andheight 1.45 cm, they are collected in a cup. (a) What is themagnitude of the (perpendicular) magnetic field in the separator?If the machine is used to separate out 1.23 mg of material perhour, calculate (b) the current of the desired ions in the machineand (c) the thermal energy produced in the cup in 1.32 h.
