In a cyclotron a charged particle

A

speeds up in dee

B

undergoes acceleration all the time

C

slows down within a dee and speeds up between dees

D

speeds up between the dees because of the magnetic field

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
As the particle is accelerated by the electric field and also the path inside the dee is circular leading to centripetal acceleration option B is the suitable option
