Question

The proton is energy 1 MeV describes a circular path in plane at right angles to a uniform magnetic field of $6.28 	imes 10^{- 4}\ T.$ The mass of the proton is $1.7 	imes 10^{- 27}\ kg.$ The cyclotron frequency of the proton is very nearly equal to

Dr. Abubacker · Accepted Answer

(d) Cyclotron frequency is given by
$\ \ \ \ v = \frac{qB}{2\pi m}$
$	herefore v = \frac{1.6 	imes 10^{- 19} 	imes 6.28 	imes 10^{- 4}}{2 	imes 3.14 	imes 1.7 	imes 10^{- 27}}$
$\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  = 0.94 	imes 10^{4}\  \approx 10^{4}\ Hz$
