2. In a mass spectrometer, doubly charged ions with a specified velocity are subjected to a magnetic field of strength, B 1.5 T, in which they follow a circular path of radius, R= 20 cm. What is the momentum of such an ion? (a) 4.8 x 10-20 N-s (b) 9.6 x 10-20 N-s (c) 6.5 x 10-19 N-s (d) 3.1 x 10-21 N-s (e) There is not enough information provided to determine the momentum.
