In a mass spectrometer a particle of mass m and charge q is accelerated through a potential difference V and allowed to enter a

magnetic field B, where it is deflected in a semi-circular path of radius R. The magnetic field is uniform and oriented perpendicular to the velocity of the particle. Derive an expression for the mass of the particle in terms of B, q, V, and R.

Answer:

m = B²qR² / 2 V

Explanation:

If v be the velocity after acceleration under potential difference of V

kinetic energy  = loss of electric potential energy

1/2 m v² = Vq ,

v² = 2 Vq / m ----------------------- ( 1 )

In magnetic field , charged particle comes in circular motion in which magnetic force provides centripetal force

magnetic force = centripetal force

Bqv = mv² / R

v = BqR / m

v² = B²q²R² / m²  ------------------------- (2)

from (1) and (2)

B²q²R² / m²  = 2 Vq / m

m = B²q²R² / 2 Vq

m = B²qR² / 2 V

What's is meant by relative motion?​
saveliy_v [14]

Relative motion means a motion relative to a reference point. We can also say, relative motion means motion referred or observed from a reference point.

For example, Alex is in a train and Ace is at the station, when the train starts moving, for Ace it is moving at a speed of 10 m/s, but for Alex it is moving at 0 m/s, or we can say that it is at rest for Alex, but in motion for Ace. This is relative motion.

A ball rolling down a hill was displaced 21.9 m while uniformly accelerating from rest. If the final velocity was 7.14 m/s, what
belka [17]

Answer:

a = 1.16 m/s²

Explanation:

In order to find the acceleration of the ball we will use 3rd equation of motion.

2as = Vf² - Vi²

where,

a = acceleration = ?

s = displacement = 21.9 m

Vf = Final Velocity = 7.14 m/s

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s (Since, ball starts from rest)

Therefore, using the values, we get:

2a(21.9 m) = (7.14 m/s)² - (0 m/s)²

a = (50.97 m²/s²)/(43.8 m)

<u>a = 1.16 m/s²</u>
