Questions  

Mixed He+ and O2+ ions (mass of He+ = 4 amu and that of O2+ = 16 amu) beam passes a region of constant perpendicular magnetic field. If kinetic energies of all the ions are the same, then

a
He+ ions will be deflected more than those of O2+
b
He+ ions will be deflected less than those of O2+
c
All the ions will be deflected equally
d
No ions will be deflected

detailed solution

Correct option is C

r=2mKqB  ⇒r ∝  mq ⇒  rHe+rO++  =   mHe+mO++ × qO++qHe+=416  ×  21 =  11.   They  will  deflect  equally.
