Physics

Suppose the electric field between the electric plates in themass spectrometer of Fig. 20-38 is 2.38 ? 104 V/m and the magneticfields B = B' = 0.66 T. The source contains carbon isotopes of massnumbers 12, 13, and 14 from a long-dead piece of a tree. (Toestimate atomic masses, multiply by 1.67 ? 10-27 kg.)

A) How far apart are the lines formed by the singly charged ionsof each type on the photographic film?
mm
(b) What if the ions were doubly charged?
mm
