<span>We need to calculate the number of seconds in one year. time = (365 days) (24 hours/day) (3600 seconds/hour) time = 31536000 seconds We can calculate the distance that light travels in this many seconds. distance = speed x time distance = (3.00 x 10^8 m/s) (31536000 seconds) distance = 9.46 x 10^{15} meters A light year is 9.46 x 10^{15} meters</span>

A cyclotron designed to accelerate protons has a magnetic field of magnitude 0.15 T over a region of radius 7.4 m. The charge on
klio [65]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B = 0.15 T

Charge on a proton, q=1.60218\times 10^{-19}\ C

Mass of a proton, m=1.67262 \times 10^{-27}\ kg

The cyclotron frequency is given by :

f=\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m}

f=\dfrac{1.60218\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 0.15\ T}{2\pi \times 1.67262 \times 10^{-27}\ kg}

f = 2286785.40 Hz

or

\omega=14368296.44\ rad/s

\omega=1.43\times 10^7 rad/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

What happens when charged object is brought near uncharged object?<br> Attract or Repel ?
Makovka662 [10]
When a charged object is brought near to but does not touch a neutral object, it causes the side of the neutral object that the charged object is near to become the other charge. It causes charge migration within the neutral object so the two charges (positive and negative) move to opposite sides of the object. Because the two objects do not touch, they do not repel each other, but rather have a slight attraction because of charge migration. If the two object were to touch then they would repel.
