The mass of the ion is 5.96 X 10⁻²⁵ kg
<u>Explanation:</u>
The electrical energy given to the ion Vq will be changed into kinetic energy
As the ion moves with velocity v in a magnetic field B then the magnetic Lorentz force Bqv will be balanced by centrifugal force .
So,
and
Right from these eliminating v, we can derive
On substituting the value, we get:
m = 5.96 X 10⁻²⁵ kg.
