An antiproton is identical to a proton except it has the opposite charge, −e. To study antiprotons, they must be confined in an ultrahigh vacuum because they will annihilate−producing gamma rays−if they come into contact with the protons of ordinary matter. One way of confining antiprotons is to keep them in a magnetic field. Suppose that antiprotons are created with a speed of 1.5 × 10^4 m/s and then trapped in a 4.5 mT magnetic field. What minimum diameter must the vacuum chamber have to allow these antiprotons to circulate without touching the walls?Express your answer with the appropriate units. d =

Explanation:

We know that, the force responsible for circulating in circular path is the centripetal force given by the force on charged particle due to magnetic field.

Here the charge is antiproton is

p = -1.6 * 10⁻¹⁹C

the speed of proton is given by 1.5 * 10 ⁴ m/s

the magnetic field is B = 4.5 * 10⁻³T

we have force due to magnetic field is equal to centripetal force

Bqv = mv² / r

Bq = mv / r

The diameter d of the vacuum chamber have to allow these antiprotons to circulate without touching the walls is

d = 2r

d = 2 * 3.479

d = 6.958

d ≅ 7cm

answer: d. a cme increases the amount of energy in the solar wind

explanation:

coronal mass ejections, also called cmes, are large clouds of plasma and magnetic field that erupt from the sun. only when the cloud is aimed at earth will the cme hit earth and therefore cause impacts. high-speed solar wind streams come from areas on the sun known as coronal holes.

speed = 20/2 = 10 m/s
