In cyclotron the gyro-radius is

Question

In cyclotron the gyro-radius is (A) proportional to momentum (B) proportional to energy (C) inversely proportional to momentum (D) inversely proportional to energy

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

⇒ r =( mv / Bq ) r =( mv / Bq )=( p / Bq )[ text where p = mv ] ⇒ r propto momentum

Q. In cyclotron the gyro-radius is

proportional to momentum

proportional to energy

inversely proportional to momentum

inversely proportional to energy

$\Rightarrow r = \frac{m v}{Bq} r = \frac{m v}{Bq} = \frac{p}{Bq} [where p = m v]$
$\Rightarrow r \propto$ momentum

Q. In cyclotron the gyro-radius is

proportional to momentum

proportional to energy

inversely proportional to momentum

inversely proportional to energy

⇒r=Bqmv​r=Bqmv​=Bqp​[ where p=mv] ⇒r∝ momentum

$\Rightarrow r = \frac{m v}{Bq} r = \frac{m v}{Bq} = \frac{p}{Bq} [where p = m v]$
$\Rightarrow r \propto$ momentum
