Question:
A cyclotron produces a 3.50-μA proton beam of 60-MeV energy. The protons impinge and come to rest inside a 50-g copper target within the vacuum chamber.
(a) Determine the number of protons that strike the target per second.
(b) Find the energy deposited in the target per second.
(c) How much time elapses before the target temperature rises 300oC? (Neglect cooling by radiation.)
