The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze the four statements provided and determine which one is correct regarding cyclotron frequency and kinetic energy of charged particles. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Cyclotron Frequency**: - Cyclotron frequency (f) is defined as the frequency at which a charged particle orbits in a magnetic field. It can be expressed mathematically as: \[ f = \frac{qB}{2\pi m} \] where \( q \) is the charge of the particle, \( B \) is the magnetic field strength, and \( m \) is the mass of the particle. 2. **Analyzing the Statements**: - **Option 1**: "The cyclotron frequency is dependent on the speed of a charged particle." - This statement is **incorrect** because cyclotron frequency does not depend on the speed of the particle; it depends on the charge, magnetic field, and mass. - **Option 2**: "The kinetic energy of a charged particle in cyclotron does not depend on its mass." - Kinetic energy (KE) is given by: \[ KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 \] - This statement is **incorrect** as kinetic energy does depend on mass. - **Option 3**: "Cyclotron frequency does not depend on the speed of the charged particle." - This statement is **correct**. As derived, cyclotron frequency is independent of the speed of the charged particle. - **Option 4**: "Kinetic energy of a charged particle in cyclotron is independent of its charge." - This statement is **incorrect** because kinetic energy is influenced by the charge of the particle. 3. **Conclusion**: - The only correct statement among the options is **Option 3**: "Cyclotron frequency does not depend on the speed of the charged particle." ### Final Answer: The correct statement is: **Cyclotron frequency does not depend on the speed of the charged particle.** (Option 3)
