when isoptopes of chemical element are projected in a magnetic field at right angle,then marnetic force,
Fb=evBsin90=evB
Provide centripetal force, Fc=mv2/r
Bev=mv2/r
r=mv/Be
Isotopes have same charge but due to different masses they adopt different paths due to which fall at different
places and are seperated

If two different, ionized isotopes with the same charge and same velocity enter a region with a homogeneous magnetic field perpendicular to their motion, the ions will follow a circular trajectory. The radius of this circle depends on the mass of the particle (i.e. on the isotope).
