Concept explainers
To find:The ratio of the kinetic energies for an alpha particle and a beta particle.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction
We assume that the particles are not relativistic, so that
The radius is charge particle rotating in magnetic field is
If both have same radii
Explanation:
The ratio of the kinetic energies for an alpha particle and a beta particle.
Conclusion:
The ratio of the kinetic energies is
