Question:

A cyclotron is to accelerate protons to an energy of 5.4 MeV. The superconducting electromagnet of the cyclotron produces a 3.5-T magnetic field perpendicular to the proton orbits.
(a) When the protons have achieved a kinetic energy of 2.7 MeV, what is the radius of their circular orbit and what is their angular speed?
(b) Repeat part (a) when the protons have achieved their final kinetic energy of 5.4 MeV.
