The Bevatron accelerator at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory accelerated protons to a kinetic energy of 6.3 GeV. What magnetic field was necessary to keep the protons traveling in a circle of 15.2 m? (See Problem 56.)
Use the result of the previous problem to show that the radius of a particle’s circular path having charge q traveling with speed v in a magnetic field perpendicular to the particle’s path is r = p/qB. What happens to the radius as the speed increases as in a cyclotron?
We need at least 10 more requests to produce the solution.
