An $\alpha$-particle (mass $4 amu$ ) and a singly charged sulfur ion (mass $32 amu$ ) are initially at rest. They are accelerated through a potential $V$ and then allowed to pass into a region of uniform magnetic field which is normal to the velocities of the particles. Within this region, the $\alpha$-particle and the sulfur ion move in circular orbits of radii $r_\alpha$ and $r_5$, respectively. The ratio $\left(r_s / r_\alpha\right)$ is. . . . .$(4)$

A particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$, accelerated by a potential difference $V$ enters a region of a uniform transverse magnetic field $B$. If $d$ is the thickness of the region of $B$, the angle $\theta$ through which the particle deviates from the initial direction on leaving the region is given by
