Question: Calculate the frequency of rotation for a proton and an electron in a magnetic field of magnitude 0.80 T. Given the charge of a proton is \(1.60 \times 10^{-19} C\), mass of a proton is \(1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg\), charge of an electron is \(-1.60 \times 10^{-19} C\), and mass of an electron is \(9.11 \times 10^{-31} kg\). Answer: The frequency of rotation for the proton is approximately \(4.07 \times 10^7 Hz\) and for the electron, it is approximately \(-2.24 \times 10^{11} Hz\). The negative sign indicates that the electron rotates in the opposite direction as compared to the proton.

Step by step solution

01

Identify given parameters for a proton

Let's identify the given parameters for a proton. The charge of a proton (q) is \(1.60 \times 10^{-19} C\), the mass of a proton (m) is \(1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg\), and the magnetic field magnitude (B) is 0.80 T.
02

Use the formula to calculate the frequency for a proton

Now, we will use the formula \(f = \frac{q \cdot B}{2 \pi m}\) to calculate the frequency of rotation for a proton: \(f = \frac{(1.60 \times 10^{-19}\,C) \cdot (0.80\,T)}{2 \pi (1.67 \times 10^{-27}\,kg)}\) Calculate the value by solving the expression: \(f = \frac{1.28 \times 10^{-19}\,C\cdot T}{3.142 \times 10^{-27}\,kg} = \boxed{4.07 \times 10^7\,Hz}\) The frequency of rotation for the proton is approximately \(4.07 \times 10^7 Hz\). #b) Calculate the frequency of rotation for an electron#
03

Identify given parameters for an electron

Now let's identify the given parameters for an electron. The charge of an electron (q) is \(-1.60 \times 10^{-19} C\) (note the negative sign), the mass of an electron (m) is \(9.11 \times 10^{-31} kg\), and the magnetic field magnitude (B) remains the same at 0.80 T.
04

Use the formula to calculate the frequency for an electron

Now, we will use the formula \(f = \frac{q \cdot B}{2 \pi m}\) to calculate the frequency of rotation for an electron: \(f = \frac{(-1.60 \times 10^{-19}\,C) \cdot (0.80\,T)}{2 \pi (9.11 \times 10^{-31}\, kg)}\) Calculate the value by solving the expression: \(f = \frac{-1.28 \times 10^{-19}\,C\cdot T}{5.711 \times 10^{-31}\,kg} = \boxed{-2.24 \times 10^{11}\,Hz}\) The frequency of rotation for the electron is approximately \(-2.24 \times 10^{11} Hz\). The negative sign indicates that the electron rotates in the opposite direction as compared to the proton.

In an electric motor, a circular coil with 100 turns of radius $2.0 \mathrm{~cm}$ can rotate between the poles of a magnet. When the current through the coil is \(75 \mathrm{~mA},\) the maximum torque that the motor can deliver is \(0.0020 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m} .\) (a) What is the strength of the magnetic field? (b) Is the torque on the coil clockwise or counterclockwise as viewed from the front at the instant shown in the figure?
An early cyclotron at Cornell University was used from the 1930 s to the 1950 s to accelerate protons, which would then bombard various nuclei. The cyclotron used a large electromagnet with an iron yoke to produce a uniform magnetic field of \(1.3 \mathrm{T}\) over a region in the shape of a flat cylinder. Two hollow copper dees of inside radius \(16 \mathrm{cm}\) were located in a vacuum chamber in this region. (a) What is the frequency of oscillation necessary for the alternating voltage difference between the dees? (b) What is the kinetic energy of a proton by the time it reaches the outside of the dees? (c) What would be the equivalent voltage necessary to accelerate protons to this energy from rest in one step (say between parallel plates)? (d) If the potential difference between the dees has a magnitude of $10.0 \mathrm{kV}$ each time the protons cross the gap, what is the minimum number of revolutions each proton has to make in the cyclotron?
The strength of Earth's magnetic field, as measured on the surface, is approximately \(6.0 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{T}\) at the poles and $3.0 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{T}$ at the equator. Suppose an alien from outer space were at the North Pole with a single loop of wire of the same circumference as his space helmet. The diameter of his helmet is \(20.0 \mathrm{cm} .\) The space invader wishes to cancel Earth's magnetic field at his location. (a) What is the current required to produce a magnetic ficld (due to the current alone) at the center of his loop of the same size as that of Earth's field at the North Pole? (b) In what direction does the current circulate in the loop, CW or CCW, as viewed from above, if it is to cancel Earth's field?
A straight wire is aligned north-south in a region where Earth's magnetic field \(\overrightarrow{\mathbf{B}}\) is directed \(58.0^{\circ}\) above the horizontal, with the horizontal component directed due north. The wire carries a current of \(8.00 \mathrm{A}\) toward the south. The magnetic force on the wire per unit length of wire has magnitude $2.80 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m} .$ (a) What is the direction of the magnetic force on the wire? (b) What is the magnitude of \(\mathbf{B} ?\)
The conversion between atomic mass units and kilograms is $$1 \mathrm{u}=1.66 \times 10^{-27} \mathrm{kg}$$ Natural carbon consists of two different isotopes (excluding $^{14} \mathrm{C},$ which is present in only trace amounts). The isotopes have different masses, which is due to different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus; however, the number of protons is the same, and subsequently the chemical properties are the same. The most abundant isotope has an atomic mass of \(12.00 \mathrm{u} .\) When natural carbon is placed in a mass spectrometer, two lines are formed on the photographic plate. The lines show that the more abundant isotope moved in a circle of radius \(15.0 \mathrm{cm},\) while the rarer isotope moved in a circle of radius \(15.6 \mathrm{cm} .\) What is the atomic mass of the rarer isotope? (The ions have the same charge and are accelerated through the same potential difference before entering the magnetic field.)
