A positive, singly ionized atom of mass number ðīM is accelerated from rest by the voltage 192 V. Thereafter, it enters a rectangular region of width ð‘Ī with magnetic field ðĩ⃗ 0 = 0.1𝑘̂ Tesla, as shown in the figure. The ion finally hits a detector at the distance ð‘Ĩ below its starting trajectory. [Given: Mass of neutron/proton = (5/3) × 10−27 kg, charge of the electron = 1.6 × 10−19 C.] Which of the following option(s) is(are) correct? (A) The value of ð‘Ĩ for ðŧ + ion is 4 cm. (B) The value of ð‘Ĩ for an ion with ðīM = 144 is 48 cm. (C) For detecting ions with 1 ≤ ðīM ≤ 196, the minimum height (ð‘Ĩ1 − ð‘Ĩ0) of the detector is 55 cm. (D) The minimum width ð‘Ī of the region of the magnetic field for detecting ions with ðīM = 196 is 56 cm.
