Medical cyclotrons need efficient sources of protons to inject into their center. in one kind of ion source, hydrogen atoms (i. e., protons with one orbiting electron) are fed into a chamber where there is a strong magnetic field. electrons in this chamber are trapped in tight orbits, which greatly increases the chance that they will collide with a hydrogen atom and ionizes it. one such source uses a magnetic field of 90 mt, and the electrons' kinetic energy is 2.0 ev. if the electrons travel in a plane perpendicular to the field, what is the radius of their orbits?

Explanation:

Electron's kinetic energy = 2 eV

= 2 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

1/2 m v² = 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹

1/2 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x v² = 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹

v² = .703 x 10¹²

v = .8385 x 10⁶ m/s

Electrons revolve in a circular orbit when forced to travel in a magnetic field whose radius can be expressed as follows

r = mv / Bq

where m , v and q are mass , velocity and charge of electron .

here given magnetic field B = 90 mT

= 90 x 10⁻³ T

Putting these values in the expression above

r =  mv / Bq

=

= .052 mm.

"i have always loved contemporary art and made it a general goal to work within the field. after a few nonprofit internships at museums and galleries, i decided to try the for-profit art world and was offered a job as the ad assistant at the magazine. i much prefer the pace of the for-profit art community and have stayed with the company for three years, with a promotion to an account manager last spring."

i just did this and got a 100.

another example of kinetic energy would be,

kinetic energy   >     moving energy
