The correct Answer is:
To calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field in a cyclotron, we can use the formula that relates the frequency of the charged particle in a magnetic field. The formula is given by: \[ f = \frac{qB}{2\pi m} \] Where: - \( f \) is the frequency (in Hz), - \( q \) is the charge of the particle (in Coulombs), - \( B \) is the magnetic field (in Tesla), - \( m \) is the mass of the particle (in kg). ### Step 1: Convert the frequency from MHz to Hz Given the operating frequency of the cyclotron is \( 12 \, \text{MHz} \): \[ f = 12 \times 10^6 \, \text{Hz} \] ### Step 2: Substitute the known values into the formula We know: - Charge of proton, \( q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{C} \) - Mass of proton, \( m = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} \, \text{kg} \) Substituting these values into the formula: \[ 12 \times 10^6 = \frac{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})B}{2\pi(1.67 \times 10^{-27})} \] ### Step 3: Rearranging the formula to solve for \( B \) Rearranging the equation to isolate \( B \): \[ B = \frac{(12 \times 10^6) \cdot 2\pi(1.67 \times 10^{-27})}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}} \] ### Step 4: Calculate \( B \) Now we can calculate \( B \): 1. Calculate \( 2\pi(1.67 \times 10^{-27}) \): \[ 2\pi(1.67 \times 10^{-27}) \approx 1.05 \times 10^{-26} \] 2. Now multiply by \( 12 \times 10^6 \): \[ (12 \times 10^6)(1.05 \times 10^{-26}) \approx 1.26 \times 10^{-19} \] 3. Finally, divide by \( 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \): \[ B \approx \frac{1.26 \times 10^{-19}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}} \approx 0.7875 \, \text{T} \] ### Step 5: Final Result The magnitude of the magnetic field \( B \) is approximately: \[ B \approx 0.7875 \, \text{T} \]
