For your senior project, you would like to build a cyclotron that will accelerate protons to 10% of the speed of light. The largest vacuum chamber you can find is 50 cm in diameter.
The concepts that are to be used to solve the given problem are the centripetal force in a circular motion, force on a charged particle in a magnetic field, and equilibrium of force.
Initially, derive the expression for strength of the magnetic field by using the centripetal force in a circular motion, force on a charged particle in a magnetic field. Finally, determine the strength of the magnetic field by using the relationship between the radius and magnetic field, mass, and velocity.
The centripetal force in a circular motion,
Here, F is the force, m is the mass, r is the radius, and v is the velocity.
The expression for force on a charged particle in a magnetic field is,
Here, F is the force, q is the charge, and B is the magnetic field, and θ is the angle.
The force on the due to magnetic field is,
Here, is the force on object, is the charge, is the speed, and is the magnetic field.
The force on a charged particle in a magnetic field,
The velocity of the charged particle is perpendicular to the magnetic field. Hence, the value of θ is 900.
Substitute 900 for θ in.
Use the equilibrium of force and equate the centripetal force with magnetic force and solve for the magnetic field strength B
Solve the equations and as follows:
The strength of the magnetic field,
Here, B is the strength of the magnetic field, m is the mass of the proton, v is the velocity of the proton, q is the charge of the proton, r is the radius of the vacuum chamber.
The diameter of the vacuum chamber is half of the radius. Hence, the radius is,
The proton accelerates at 10% of the speed of light, hence, the speed of the proton is,
The strength of the magnetic field is,
Substitute for m, for v, for q, and 0.25 m for r in .
Ans:
The strength of the magnetic field is.

The protons are emitted nearly at rest from a source at the center and are accelerated through 614 V each time they cross the gap between the dees.

Beams of high-speed protons can be produced in "guns" using electric fields to accelerate the protons. Find the acceleration would a proton experience if the gun's electric field were 2.72 × 104 N/C. What speed would the proton attain if the field accelerated the proton through a distance of 1.17 cm? (enter speed for answer).
Suppose protons are initially at rest (velocity=0) and needs to be accelerated to high speed and then steered in a particular direction for cancer therapy. How can this be done? Hint: You could find this info in the lecture slides, but it would be faster to consider the fundamental laws regarding how velocity effects electric and magnetic forces. Select the correct answer A magnetic field is needed to accelerate the protons, but then either an electric or magnetic field can...
2. A cyclotron is a device used to accelerate charged particles to high speeds. It consists of two hollow containers -called dees because of their shape facing each other and separated by a small gap. They are immersed in a uniform magnetic field, B, and are attached to a source of alternating voltage. A charged particle is projected from the center of the cyclotron into Dee #1, and the magnetic force causes it to turn in a cirele. When it...

The original (uniform magnetic field) type of fixed frequency cyclotron was limited in energy because of the relativistic increase of mass of the accelerated particle with energy. What percentage increment to the magnetic flux density at extreme radius would be necessary to preserve the resonance condition for protons of energy 20 MeV? A cyclotron is powered by a 50,000 V, 5 Mc/s radio frequency source. If it. diameter is 1.524 m. what magnetic...
