The resulting beams of highly energetic particles then can be used for many medical applications, including Proton Therapy (a more precise form of "radiation" used in the treatment of some cancers). A description of the cyclotron can be found in section 19.3 of the text. If a proton (of mass 1.673x10-27kg) is accelerated to its maximum velocity inside a dee with radius 2.08cm (this is the radius you would use for the "r" term in the centripetal acceleration), and if the magnetic field has a magnitude of 2.44x10-2T, what is the resulting velocity of the proton in units of km/s (kilometer per second)?arrow_forward
