In a certain particle accelerator, protons travel around a circular path of diameter D in an evacuated chamber, whose residual gas is at temperature T and pressure p. Assuming T is given in Kelvin and p in pascals, calculate the number n of gas molecules per cubic meter under these conditions, what is the mean free path λ of the gas molecules if the molecular diameter is d. State your answers in terms of the given variables, using the Boltzmann constant k and n if necessary. 2 Click here to enter or edit your answer Click here to enter or edit your answer
