If all the ions have the same kinetic energy how are their masses related to their velocities?(a) Mass and velocity are equal(b) Mass and velocity are not related(c) Mass and velocity are directly proportional(d) Mass and velocity are inversely proportionalThe question was asked in exam.My question is based upon Time of Flight Mass Spectrometer topic in section Mass Spectrometer of Analytical Instrumentation

Answer»

The correct answer is (d) Mass and VELOCITY are inversely proportional

Best explanation: If all the ions have the same KINETIC ENERGY, mass and velocity are inversely proportional. This is USED in the separation of ions.
