A proton moves in the magnetic field with a speed of in the directions shown in FIGURE. For each, what is magnetic force on the proton? Give your answers in component form.

An electron moves along the with . As it passes the origin, what are the strength and direction of the magnetic field at the positions. (a) (1 cm, 0 cm, 0 cm) (b) (o cm, o cm, 1 cm)
(c) ( 0 cm, 1 cm, 1 cm)?
A proton in a cyclotron gains of kinetic energy per revolution, where is the potential between the dees. Although the energy gain comes in small pulses, the proton makes so many revolutions that it is reasonable to model the energy as increasing at the constant rate , where is the period of the cyclotron motion. This is power input because it is a rate of increase of energy.
a. Find an expression for , the radius of a proton's orbit in a cyclotron, in terms of . Assume that at .
Hint:Start by finding an expression for the proton's kinetic energy in terms of .
b. A relatively small cyclotron is in diameter, uses a magnetic field, and has a potential difference between the dees. What is the power input to a proton, in ?
c. How long does it take a proton to spiral from the center out to the edge?
You have a 1.0-m-long copper wire. You want to make an N-turn current loop that generates a 1.0 mT magnetic field at the center when the current is 1.0 A. You must use the entire wire. What will be the diameter of your coil?
Magnetic resonance imaging needs a magnetic field strength of 1.5 T. The solenoid is 1.8 m long and 75 cm in diameter. It is tightly wound with a single layer of 2.0-mm-diameter superconducting wire. What size current is needed?
