Problem
A cyclotron's oscillator frequency is 10MHz. What should be the operating magnetic field for accelerating protons? If the radius of its dees is 60cm, what is the kinetic energy, in MeV, of the proton beam produced by the accelerator? Take e=1.60×10−19C, mp=1.67×10−27kg, and 1MeV=1.6×10−13J.
