A cyclotron is a device for accelerating charged particles to high speedas they follow an expanding spiral-like path (See LHC, NSRRC, or an MRImachine). The charged particles are subjected to both an electric fieldand a magnetic field. One of these fields increases the speed of thecharged particles, and the other field causes them to follow a curvedpath. Which one does the latter?The magnetic field, since it exerts a force to the moving charge perpendicular to thecharges' direction of motion.The electric field, since it exerts a force that accelerates the particle in the curvedpath of the facility.Not necessarily only one. Both contributes to the particles' curving of path as bothexert force perpendicular to their velocity's direction.None of them. The curving of charges occur due to the design of the facility/device.

It is the magnetic force which is responsible for the circular motion of charged particle in a…
