An ion enters a mass spectrometer which has a 0.18 Tesla field perpendicular to an electric field of 1.6 kV/m and selects a velocity. The same magnetic field is then used to deflect the singly charged ion into a circular path of radius 12.5 cm.
 
  (a) What velocity was selected?
  (b) What was the ion mass?
