A researcher studying the properties of ions in the upper atmosphere wishes to construct an apparatus with the following characteristics: Using an electric field, a beam of ions, each having charge q, mass m, and initial velocity v , is turned through an angle of 90 as each ion undergoes displacement R + R . The ions enter a chamber as shown in Figure P23.53, and leave through the exit port with the same speed they had when they entered the chamber. The electric field acting on the ions is to have constant magnitude. (Use the following as necessary: m, v, q, and R.)
