Question

The following mass spectrometer is for Qs 1-4 If the desired velocity is 800.000 m/s and the electric field is 1.00 mv/m, what magnetic field is required? (a) 1.25 T (b) 12.2 T (c) 157 T (d) 215 T (e) 970 T The mass spectrometer is used on carbon isotopes dating if the ^12C isotope's radius of curvature is 25 cm and the carbon isotope is ionizes (q = +e) what is the required magnetic field B_2? Radius = 4 cm (a) 1.5 T (b) 2.5 T (c) 14 T (d) 25 T (e) 120 T Find the separation difference of 12^C and 14^C after being bent the half-circle as shown in the figure (1 atomic mass unit = 1.66 times 10^-27 kg) (a) 2.3 cm (b) 1.3 cm (c) 2.2 cm (d) 4.2 cm (e) 6.0 cm

Explanation / Answer

(1) E = v B

B = (1 x 10^6 V/m) / (800000 m/s)

B = 1.25 T

Ans(A)


(2) for moving in circular path under the influence of magnetic field,

q v B = m v^2 / r


B = m v / r q = (12 x 1.67 x 10^-27) (800000) / (0.04 x 1.6 x 10^-19)

B = 2.5 T

Ans(b)


(3) r = m v / q B

2 r = 2 m v / q B

deltad = (2 x 800000 / (2.5 x 1.6 x 10^-19) ) ((14-12) x 1.67 x 10^-27)

= 0.013 m Or 1.3 cm

Ans(b)
