In a mass spectrometer used for measuring the masses of ions, the ions are initially accelerated by an electric potential \(V\) and then made to describe semi-circular paths of radius \(R\) using a magnetic field \(B\). If \(V\) and \(B\) are kept constant, the ratio of \(\left(\frac{\text{Charge on the ion}}{\text{Mass of the ion}} \right)\) will be proportional to:
