In a standard mass spectrometer two isotopes of hydrogen


In a standard mass spectrometer two isotopes of hydrogen are being measured for their relative aboudance in a smaple of water brough back from Mars. If plain H has a mass of 1.67 x 10-27 kg and deuterium has a mass of 3.34 x 10-27 kg. Both have a single charge of 1.602 x 10-19 C and are accelerated by a 6240V potential before bieng shot into a 1.25 T magnetic field which is perpendicular to their path?

a) What are their respective cyclotronic radii?

b) What are the velocities of each particle being introduced to the B-field?
