Using a vacuum chamber of diameter 74.0 cm you want to create a cyclotron that accelerates protons to 36.0 % of the speed of light . What strength of magnetic field is required in order for this to work?
-17 T8 T
Definition Definition Rate at which light travels, measured in a vacuum. The speed of light is a universal physical constant used in many areas of physics, most commonly denoted by the letter c . The value of the speed of light c = 299,792,458 m/s, but for most of the calculations, the value of the speed of light is approximated as c = 3 x 10 8 m/s.
