Question: Problem 3 - Different particles pass through a spectrometer that uses a magnetic field of 5 T and an acceleration voltage of ( 2

Problem 3- Different particles pass through a spectrometer that uses a magnetic field of 5T and an acceleration voltage of \(25,000\mathrm{~V}\). We know that all the particles are negatively charged and have a mass per unit charge of around \(1\times 10^{\wedge}-8\mathrm{~kg}/\mathrm{C}\). We know that particle A has a mass of 10 mass units ( mu ) and lands on the screen corresponding to a radius of 28.8 mm . Read the questions below and use the diagram and table below to determine the validity of each statement. Explain your results.
A. The magnetic field in the box is pointed out of the page since the particles strike the lower part of the box on the screen.
B. The masses of \( B \) and \( A \) are the same, it is just their charges are different. Particle \( B \) has twice the charge of \( A \) and that is why it lands a little further.
C. Assuming mass \( A \) and \( D \) have the same charge, particle \( D \) is 20 mass units since it landed in a location that correlates with a 40.7 mm radius.
D. If particle \( B \) has twice the charge of \( C \), then particle \( B \) is more massive than \( C \).
