To solve the problem of calculating the frequency with which the electric field between the dees of a cyclotron should be reversed, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the motion of protons in a cyclotron Protons are accelerated in a cyclotron using a magnetic field. The protons move in a circular path due to the magnetic field, and the electric field between the dees is used to accelerate them. The electric field needs to be reversed every time the protons complete a semicircular path. ### Step 2: Determine the time taken for a semicircular motion The time taken \( T \) for a proton to complete a semicircular path can be calculated using the formula: \[ ...
