Answer

$ {\bf 2.10}\;\rm T$

Work Step by Step

We know that a cyclotron motion has a radius that is given by $$r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}=\dfrac{mv}{eB}$$ Hence, the magnetic field is given by $$B=\dfrac{mv}{er} $$ where $v=2\pi r/T$ where $T$ is the periodic time for one full cycle, which is given by $T=1/f_{\rm cyc}$, so $$B=\dfrac{2\pi r f_{\rm cyc}m }{er}$$ $$B_1=\dfrac{2\pi f_{\rm cyc}m }{e } \tag 1$$ We know that Hall voltage is given by $$(\Delta V_{\rm H})_1=\dfrac{I_1B_1}{tne}\tag 2$$ Hence, $$tne =\dfrac{I_1B_1}{(\Delta V_{\rm H})_1}$$ Plug $B$ from (1), $$tne =\dfrac{I_1 }{(\Delta V_{\rm H})_1}\dfrac{2\pi f_{\rm cyc}m }{e }\tag 3$$ Solving (2) for $B$ to find the new magnetic field. $$B_2=\dfrac{(\Delta V_{\rm H})_2 tne}{I_2}$$ Plug from $tne$ (3), $$B_2=\dfrac{(\Delta V_{\rm H} )_2 }{I_2}\dfrac{I_1 }{(\Delta V_{\rm H})_1}\dfrac{2\pi f_{\rm cyc}m }{e }$$ where $I_1=I_2$, $$B_2= \dfrac{(\Delta V_{\rm H} )_2}{(\Delta V_{\rm H})_1}\dfrac{2\pi f_{\rm cyc}m }{e }$$ Plug the known; $$B_2=\dfrac{(1.735)}{(0.543)} \dfrac{2\pi (10\times 10^6)(1.67\times 10^{-27}) }{(1.6\times 10^{-19}) }$$ $$B_2=\color{red}{\bf 2.10}\;\rm T$$
