Assertion A beam of charged particles is employed in the treatment of cancer. Reason Charged particles on passing through a material medium loss their energy by causing ionisation of the atoms along their path.

A beam of the charged particles is passed through a magnetic field. The work done on the beam by the field is

Assertion : When a charge particle moves in a circular path. It produces electromagnetic wave. Reason : Charged particle has acceleration.

Assertion A beam of electron can pass undeflected through a region of E and B. Reason Force on moving charged particle due to magnetic field may be zero in some cases.

Assertion : A charged particle can be accelerated in a cyclotron by the alternate distribution of the field. Reason : Energy of charged particle is increased by the field applied.

Assertion : Path of a charged particle in uniform magnetic field cannot be a parabola. Reason : For parabolic path acceleration should be constant.

A charged particle of specific charge s passes undeviated through region 1 as shown in Fig.

Assertion: The energy of charged particle moving in uniform magnetic field does not change. Reason: Work done by magnetic field on the charge is zero.

The cyclotron is a device which is used to accelerate charged particles such as protons, deutrons, alpha particles, etc. to very high energy. The principle on which a cyclotron works is based on the fact that an electric field can accelerate a charged particle and a magnetic field can throw it into a circular orbit. A particle of charge +q experiences a force qE in an electric field E and this force is independent of velocity of the particle. The particle is accelerated in the direction of the magnetic field. On the other hand, a magnetic field at right angles to the direction of motion of the particle throws the particle in a circular orbit in which the particle revolves with a frequency that does not depend on its speed. A modest potential difference is used as a sources of electric field. If a charged particle is made to pass through this potential difference a number of times, it will acquire an enormous by large velocity and hence kinetic energy. Which of the following cannot be accelerated in a cyclotron?
