(a) The diameter of the largest orbit just before the protons exit the cyclotron is 39 cm.

(b) The number of orbits completed by the proton during this 1.0 ms is 14000 revolutions.

The energy that an object has as a result of motion is known as kinetic energy. It is described as the effort required to move a mass-determined body from rest to the indicated velocity.

K.E = 1/2mv²

mv² = 2 K.E

v = sqrt( 2*KE / M)

(a) The KE of the medical isotopes = 6.5 MeV

v = sqrt( 2* 6.5* 1.6* 10^-13 / 1.67* 10^-27 )

v = 3.53 × 10⁷ m/s

Now the centripetal force:

mv² / R = qvB

r = q*v / mv²

r = ( 1.67* 10^-27 * 3.53 × 10⁷ ) / ( 1.9* 1.6* 10^-19 )

r = 0.19415 m

diameter d = 2r,

d= 2(0.19415  m)

d= 0.39 m ≅ 39 cm

(b) The time period to complete a revolution around the spiral trajectory is:

T = 2πr / v

T = 2*3.14* 0.1941 / 3.53*10^7

T = 0.7 × 10⁻⁷ s

Thus, the number of orbits that the proton does to complete the revolution in 1 ms is:

n = t / T

n = 10^-3 / (0.7*10^-7)

n = 14285.71  ≅ 14000 revolutions

The complete question is :

A medical cyclotron used in the production of medical isotopes accelerates protons to 6.5 MeV. The magnetic field in the cyclotron is 1.2 T.

a. What is the diameter of the largest orbit, just before the protons exit the cyclotron?

b. A proton exits the cyclotron 1.0 ms after starting its spiral trajectory in the center of the cyclotron. How many orbits does the proton complete during this 1.0 ms?

Neptune is approximately 4.5 billion kilometers from the sun. What is this distance in AU?
asambeis [7]
Well, one AU is 149,597,870 km. So, we would basically have to divide 4.5 billion km by 149,597,870, right?

4,500,000,000/149,597,870=30.080642 AU.

So, the correct answer would be 30 AU. Hoped this helped!

Calculate work when the force exerted to push an object is 75 n and the distance is 1.2 kilometers.
grigory [225]

The magnitude of the work done to push the object is 90,000 J

<h3>When is Work done on a body ?</h3>

Work is done on a body when the direction of the force applied is parallel to the direction of the displacement of the body.

The following parameters are given;

  • Force F = 75 N
  • Distance S = 1.2 Km
  • Work W = ?

First convert the distance in kilometer to meter by multiplying it by 1000

S = 1.2 x 1000 = 1200 m

From the definition of work,

W = F x S

Substitute the parameters into the formula

W = 75 x 1200

W = 90,000 J

Therefore, the magnitude of the work done to push the object is 90,000 J
