1) A mass spectrometer was used in the discovery of the electron. In the velocity selector, the electric and magnetic fields are set to only allow electrons with a specific velocity to exit the fields. The electrons then enter an area with only a magnetic field, where the electron beam is deflected in a circular shape with a radius of 8.0 mm. In the velocity selector, E = 400.0 V/m and B = 4.7 x 10-4 T. The same value of B exists in the area where the electron beam is deflected. a) What is the speed of the electrons as they exit the velocity selector? b) What is the value of e/m of the electron? c) What is the accelerating voltage in the tube? d) How does the electron radius change if the accelerating voltage is doubled?

Magnetic Force on a Moving Charge A velocity selector is a simple configuration of electric and magnetic fields that allows only those ions of a particular velocity in a narrow beam of ions to pass through it. A constant electric field E is oriented perpendicularly to a constant magnetic field B. The beam passes through the fields in the third direction, i.e., perpendicular to both E and B. A screen with a small hole blocks all the ions that are...
