- A proton precesses with a frequency p in the presence of a magnetic field. If the intensity of the magnetic field is doubled, what happens to the precessional frequency?arrow_forwardMagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful method that, unlike X-ray imaging, allows sharp images of soft tissue to be taken without exposing the patient to potentially dangerous radiation. The starting point for MRI is nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), a technique that depends on whether the protons in the atomic nucleus have a magnetic field. The origin of the proton's magnetic field is its spin. In a classical analogy, the proton has a magnetic moment μ⃗ , like a loop of wire; thus, it will have a torque when subjected to an external magnetic field B⃗ 0. The magnitude of μ⃗ is somewhere around 1.4×10−26 J/T. The proton can be thought of as being in one of two states: either oriented parallel or antiparallel to the applied magnetic field, with work being done to invert the proton from the low-energy to the high-energy state. If a nucleus has an even number of protons and neutrons, they will pair up in such a way that half of the protons will have spins in one orientation, and…arrow_forward11111 TEE MIXE ME ISASIE 1110 1 11F FRIT 111 Do all of the following: a) Write down an algebraic equation for the diameter D of the charged particle's circular path in a magnetic field.
