Alpha particles of mass 6.68 × 10 ^ -27 kg and charge 3.2 × 10 ^ -19 C are accelerated in a cyclotron in which a magnetic field of 1.25 T is applied perpendicular to the dees (dees is the name given to two electrodes hollow semicircular, as they are D-shaped). With what period should the electric field be reversed between the dees?
A.)5.25 × 10 ^ -8 s
B.)955.25 × 10 ^ -8 s
C.)55.25 × 10 ^ -8 s
D.)575.25 × 10 ^ -8 s
E.) None before and / or after is correct.
The circular particle accelerator at CERN has a radius of about 2.24 km. The accelerator uses strong magnetic fields to steer charged particles in a circle, while electric fields give them more and more energy every time around. Suppose we're steering protons using magnetic fields of magnitude 8.22 T.
What would be the magnitude of the momentum, p, of a proton under those conditions? You may assume that the magnetic field involved is perpendicular to the motion of the charges (that's the most efficient configuration).
