10. A particle with a charge of 6.40 x 10
C travels in a circular orbit with a radius
4.68 mm due to the force exerted on it by a magnetic field with magnitude of 1.65
T that is perpendicular to its orbit. What is the magnitude of the linear momentum

12. An ion with a mass of m and a charge of +2e leaves a velocity selector moving at
a speed of 400 km/s. It then moves in a half circle in a magnetic field of 60-mT
that is perpendicular to the plane of its motion. At the end of this trip it is
detected. If the radius of the circle is 13.9 cm, what is the mass of the ion?
