Definition of 1 Ampere
One ampere is defined as the constant
current that, when it is flowing in each of
two infinitely long, straight, parallel
conductors which have negligible of cross

vacuum, would produce a force per
unit length between the conductors of

A mass spectrometer
• A mass spectrometer is a device used for
separating atoms or molecules according
to their mass.
• The atoms or molecules are ionized and
then accelerated through an electric field,
giving them a speed which depends on
their mass (their kinetic energies are all
the same).
• Then they enter a region of uniform
magnetic field, which bends them in a
circular path.
4.7 Motion of charged particle in magnetic field and electric field
A mass spectrometer
• The radius of the path depends on the
momentum of the particle; if the kinetic
energies are the same and the masses
are different, the momentum will be
different as well.

different isotope of an element enter a region of cross electric
