An alternating electric field,of frequency $f$,is applied across the dees (radius $\approx R$) of a cyclotron that is being used to accelerate protons (mass $\approx m$). The operating magnetic field $(B)$ used in the cyclotron and the kinetic energy $(K)$ of the proton beam,produced by it,are given by:

In a cyclotron experiment, if we assume that the maximum radius attained by any charged particle is equal to the radius of the dees, then the minimum kinetic energy gained by the particles will be for

$A$ cyclotron's oscillator frequency is $10 \; MHz$. What should be the operating magnetic field for accelerating protons? If the radius of its 'dees' is $60 \; cm$,what is the kinetic energy (in $MeV$) of the proton beam produced by the accelerator? $(e = 1.60 \times 10^{-19} \; C, m_p = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} \; kg, 1 \; MeV = 1.6 \times 10^{-13} \; J)$

$A$ cyclotron's oscillator frequency is $10 \text{ MHz}$ and the operating magnetic field is $0.66 \text{ T}$. If the radius of its dees is $60 \text{ cm}$, then the kinetic energy of the proton beam produced by the accelerator is: (in $\text{ MeV}$)

Discuss the motion of a charged particle in a uniform magnetic field with initial velocity perpendicular to the magnetic field. $OR$ Explain the principle of a cyclotron.
