An $\alpha$-particle (mass $4 \text{ amu}$) and a singly charged sulfur ion (mass $32 \text{ amu}$) 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 $r_s$,respectively. The ratio $(r_s / r_\alpha)$ is:
