Physics

A proton and a singly charged ion of mass 91 atomic mass units(amu) are accelerated through the same potentialdifference and enter a region of uniform magnetic field movingperpendicular to the magnetic field. What is the ratio of theirkinetic energies?  If the radius of the proton's circularpath in the magnetic field is 16.8 cm , what is the radiusof the path of the singly charged ion of 91amu?  By what factor must the magnetic field bemultiplied by for the singly charge ion to have the same radiuspath as the proton?
