Please just show me how to set this problem up to solve

Singly charged Boron atoms (one electron removed so that q = +1.6x10-19) enter a region of constant magnetic field. (The blue shaded region shown in the figure.) They travel in a semi-circle and leave the field as shown. The magnetic field is 0.29 T. The speed of the atoms is determined by an electrostatic accelerator. The atoms start at rest and go through an electric potential AV = - 5.33x104 V. Boron has two isotopes with different masses: 10B has a mass 10 times the mass of the proton (20% of the atoms) and 11B has a mass 11 times the mass of the proton (80% of the atoms). The mass of the proton is 1.67x10-27 kg. The different isotopes enter the magnetic field at the same position but will leave at different points, meaning different distances from where they entered. How far apart will the two different isotopes be when they leave the field? Give your answer in centimeters to at least three significant figures. Hint: The diameter of a circle is twice the radius (obviously). B
