A neon atom of mass 3.82×10-26 kg is triply ionized. That is, three electrons are stripped from the atom so that its charge is +3e, or 4.80×10-19 C. The atom is accelerated across a potential difference of magnitude 212 V, and enters a mass spectrometer whose magnetic field has a strength of 1.25 T. (a) What is the radius of the atom's trajectory in the magnetic field? (b) What is the radius of the trajectory of a sulfur ion, also triply ionized, but having mass 5.64×10-26 kg? (c) What is the distance between the points on the detector plate struck by these two atoms?
