The frequency of applied voltage in cyclotron for alpha particles.
Answer to Problem 3P
Solution:
The frequency of the applied voltage is
Explanation of Solution
Given info:
Form the Example 32-2 the magnetic field is 1.7T and Radius of cyclotron is R=0.25.
Formula used:
The equation to determine the frequency is given by
……………………………..I
Calculation:
Now alpha particles have 2 protons and 2 neutrons hence the charge on alpha particles is twice that of a proton.
Thus,
And the mass,
Substituting the values in equation I we get.
