The angle of incidence and the angle of reflection are equal,
and they're both defined as the angle between the light ray
and the normal (perpendicular) to the mirror.

If the light ray comes in at an angle of 50° to the mirror, then the
angle of incidence is (90° - 50°) = 40°, the angle of reflection is
also 40°, and the light ray is redirected through a total angle of 80°.

Singly charged uranium-238 ions are accelerated through a potential difference of 2.90 kV and enter a uniform magnetic field of
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: 0.091 m

Explanation:

r = 1/B * √(2mV/e), where

r = radius of their circular path

B = magnitude of magnetic field = 1.29 T

m = mass of Uranium -238 ion = 238 * amu = 238 * 1.6*10^-27 kg

V = potential difference = 2.9 kV

e = charge of the Uranium -238 ion = 1.6*10^-19 C

r = 1/1.29 * √[(2 * 238 * 1.6*10^-27 * 2900) / 1.6*10^-19]

r = 1/1.29 * √(2.21*10^-21 / 1.6*10^-19)

r = 1/1.29 * √0.0138

r = 1/1.29 * 0.117

r = 0.091 m

Therefore, the radius of their circular path is 0.091 m
