Aproton, mass 1.67 × 10−27 kg and charge +1.6 × 10−19 c, moves in a circular orbit perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field of 0.90 t. find the time for the proton to make one complete circular orbit.

Time taken by proton to complete one complete circular orbit= 7.28 x 10⁻⁸ s

Explanation:

For proton, the centripetal force required for circular motion is provided by the magnetic force,

so Fm= Fc

q v B = m v²/r

m= mass of charged particle

v= velocity

B =magnetic field

q= charge

r= radius of circular path

v= q B r/m

now v= r ω

ω= angular velocity

ω r = q B r /m

ω=q B /m

now ω= 2π/T where T =time period

so 2π/T=q B/m

T= 2 πm/q B

T= 2π (1.67 x 10⁻²⁷)/ [( 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)* (0.9)]

T= 7.28 x 10⁻⁸ s

a sonic boom is a loud boom that breaks the sound barrier
