I urgently need help with these two problems: 1/ A proton enters a magnetic field in an evacuated chamber.Its initial velocity is at right angles to the magnetic field. Explain why the kinetic enrgy of the proton stays constant. 2/ There are 2 point charges separated by a distance of...

Hi- does anyone know much about Cyclotrons?I don't know how to answer the following point: Describe how ions could be accelerated to high energies if they could be made to move in a circular path inside the dees so that they repeatedly moved across the electric field, the direction of which...

I don't understand this question at all- could someone please help- at least giving me a starting point- thanks A wire, of length 70cm is placed into a magnetic field of strength 0.001T. If the wire carries a current of 5 amps 1/ Calculate the magnitude of the forces on the wire if it is...

Alpha particle have a charge? does an alpha particle have charge- like an electron does?

Hello- is it possible to convert MeV to V? If so, how is it done? For example if a particle is emmitted with an energy of 4.19MeV- how can this be changed into V? Any help is greatly appreciated.
