Atoms moving in magnetic field


Assignment:

Imagine that we give N2(+), O2(+) and (NO)+ ions the same velocity of 30.0 km/s and then send them into a mass spectrometer where the magnetic field strength is B=8.5MN/C. How far would the spot on the photographic plate be from the entry point for each ion, assuming that each ion completes one-half of an orbit. The atomic mass of a nitrogren atom is 14.0031 amu and oxygen is 15.9949 amu, where 1 amu = 1.6605 x 10^-27 kg

Provide complete and step by step solution for the question and show calculations and use formulas.
