For which purpose is the device of cyclotron used?

$A$ cyclotron is used to accelerate protons $\left({ }_{1}^{1} H\right)$,deuterons $\left({ }_{1}^{2} H\right)$,and $\alpha$-particles $\left({ }_{2}^{4} He\right)$. While exiting under similar conditions,the minimum kinetic energy $(KE)$ is gained by:

$A$ 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? $(e = 1.60 \times 10^{-19} \; C, m_p = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} \; kg, 1 \; MeV = 1.6 \times 10^{-13} \; J)$

Maximum kinetic energy gained by the charged particle in the cyclotron is independent of

$A$ cyclotron's oscillator frequency is $20 MHz$. The operating magnetic field for accelerating protons is (charge of proton $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C$,mass of proton $= 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg$). (in $T$)
