A cyclotron cannot be used to accelerate the:

An a–particle and a proton are released from the centre of the cyclotron and made to accelerate. When they are accelerated in turn, which of the two will have higher velocity at the exit slit of the dees?

Direction. In the follwing questions, a statement of assertion is followed by a statement of reason. While answering a question, you are required to choose the correct are out of the given four responses and mark it as (A). If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion, (B) if both assertion and reason are true but reason is not correct explanation of the assertion. (C) if asssertion is true, but reason if false, (D) if both assertion and reason are false Assertion : Cyclotron is not used to accelerate electrons. Reason : Mass of electrons is very small.

A cyclotron is used to accelerate

An a–particle and a proton are released from the centre of the cyclotron and made to accelerate. Can both be accelerated at the same cyclotron frequency? Give reason to justify your answer.

Draw a schmatic sketch of a cyclotron. Explain, giving the essential details of tis contruction, how it is used to accelerate the charged particles.
