Work Step by Step

a) We know that kinetic energy is given by $$KE= \dfrac{q^2B^2R^2}{2m}$$ See example (32-2) in your textbook. So, the magnetic field is given by $$B^2=\dfrac{2mKE}{q^2R^2}$$ $$B =\sqrt{\dfrac{2mKE}{q^2R^2}}$$ Plugging the known; $$B =\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 2.014102\times 1.66\times 10^{-27}\times 12\times 10^6\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{(1.6\times 10^{-19})^2\times 1^2}}$$ $$B=\color{red}{\bf 0.708 }\;\rm T$$ _______________________________________________ b) We know that the frequency needed is given by $$f=\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m}$$ Plugging the known; $$f=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.708}{2\pi \times 2.014102\times 1.66\times 10^{-27}}$$ $$f= 5.39242\times 10^6\;\rm Hz=\color{red}{\bf5.39}\;\rm MHz$$ _______________________________________________ c) In this case, the particles will be accelerated two times in each revolution. Thus, the number of revolutions is given by $$N=\dfrac{V_1}{2V_2}$$ where $V$ is the potential difference. $$N=\dfrac{12\times 10^6}{2\times 22\times 10^3}=\color{red}{\bf 273}\;\rm rev$$ _______________________________________________ d) We can find the time it takes by dividing the number of revolutions times the periodic time which is equal to the $1/f$. Thus, $$\Delta t=NT=\dfrac{N}{f}$$ Plugging the known; $$\Delta t =\dfrac{273}{5.39\times 10^6}=\color{red}{\bf5.06\times 10^{-5}}\;\rm s$$ _______________________________________________ e) We know that the particles are moving in circular paths through the Cyclotron and the circumferences of these paths increases in each revolution since the particles move in a larger circle and larger circle and so on.. Let's take an average circular path which has a radius equal to the rdius of the Cyclotron divided by 2. Thereore, the distance traveled in one revolution is given by $$d= 2\pi R_{avg}=\color{red}{\bf\not}2\pi \frac{R}{\color{red}{\bf\not}2}$$ And hence the distance traveled inside the Cyclotron is given by $$d_{tot}=Nd=N \pi R =$$ Plugging the known; $$d_{tot} =273\pi \times 1=\color{red}{\bf 858}\;\rm m$$
