Which of the following is not correct about cyclotron?

A

It is a machine to accelerate charged particles or ions to high energies.

B

Cyclotron uses both electric and magnetic fields in combination to increase the energy of charged particles.

C

The operation of the cyclotron is based on the fact that the time for one revolution of an ion is independent of its speed or radius of its orbit.

D

The charged particles and ions in cyclotron can move on any arbitrary path.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The charged particles and ions in cyclotron can move along circular path only.
