3 EVALUATE THE ANSWER
• Are the units correct? The radius of the circular path is a length measurement,
given in units of meters.
• Are the values reasonable? Radii of a few centimeters are typical of this kind of apparatus
and can easily be measured. The negative sign means that the circle curves in the
direction opposite that of a positive ion.
